Effect of physical pretreatment on dilute acid hydrolysis of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes).

Effect of physical pretreatment on dilute acid hydrolysis of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes).

Effects of different physical pretreatments on water hyacinth for dilute acid hydrolysis process (121 ± 3 °C, 5% H2SO4, 60 min) were comparatively investigated. Untreated sample had produced 24.69 mg sugar/g dry matter. Steaming (121 ± 3 °C) and boiling (100 ± 3 °C) for 30 min had provided 35.9% and...
