Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent economic trends, especially the worldwide decline in oil prices, and an altered political climate in the United States have combined to bring about major reductions in research on renewable energy resources. Yet there is no escaping the "facts of life" with regard to these resources. The days of inexpensive fossil energy are clearly numbered, the credibility of nuclear energy has fallen to a new low, and fusion energy stands decades or more from practical realization. Sooner than we may wish ,we will have to turn to renewable raw materials - plant "biomass" and, especially, wood - as significant suppliers of energy for both industry and everyday needs. It is therefore especially important to have a single, comprehensive and current source of information on a key step in any process for the technological exploitation of woody materials, cellulose hydrolysis. Further more, it is essential that any such treatment be unbiased with respect to the two methods - chemical and biochemical - for the breakdown of cellulose to sugars. Researchers on cellulose hydrolysis have frequently been chided by persons from industry, especially those individuals concerned with determining the economic feasibility of various technological alternatives. They tell us that schemes for the utilization of wood and other such resources fly in the face of economic realities.

Download or read book Saccharification and Fermentation of Lignocellulosic Biomass Using Trichoderma Reesei Cellulases and Saccharomyces Cerevisiae written by Yun-Chin Chung and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The efficiency of cellulose hydrolysis under straight saccharification and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) conditions was evaluated using three lignocellulosic materials (switchgrass, cornstover, and poplar), which had been pretreated with dilute sulfuric acid under conditions which optimized xylose concentrations in the prehydrolysate liquid. Yields of glucose, cellobiose and ethanol obtained from the pretreated feedstocks were measured over 168 hrs. The final theoretical conversions of cellulose from pretreated switchgrass, cornstover, and poplar in straight saccharification were 85-100% (average 94%), 84-100% (average 96%), and 75-100% (average 87%), respectively, while in SSF the conversions were 84-90% (average 87%), 91-96% (average 90%), 72%-82% (average 76%), respectively. The conversion rates of poplar in straight saccharification and SSF were significantly lower than those of switchgrass and cornstover. The effects of reaction parameters such as enzyme activity, cellulose availability, and yeast cell viability on the extent of hydrolysis in straight saccharification and SSF were also studied. Results indicate that the lower glucose or ethanol yields associated with some of the poplar were due to the recalcitrant nature of its cellulose. To compare accurately the efficiencies between straight saccharification and SSF, a direct method for determining the cellulose content of the feedstocks residues resulting from SSF experiments has been developed and evaluated. The method improves on classical cellulose assays by incorporating a yeast lysing enzyme to remove yeast glucans from the feedstocks residue prior to acid hydrolysis and subsequent quantification of cellulose derived glucose. A freeze-drying step was identified as necessary to render the SSF yeast cells susceptible to enzyme lysis. The method was applied to the analysis of the cellulose and yeast-glucan content of SSF residues from the three pretreated feedstocks. Cellulose assays employing the lysing enzyme preparation demonstrated relative errors up to 7.2% when yeast-associated glucan were not removed prior to analysis of SSF residues. Enzymatic lysis of SSF yeast cells may be viewed as a general preparatory procedure to be used prior to the subsequent chemical and physical analysis of SSF residues.

Book excerpt: This volume reports the latest advances in the science and technology related to the conversion of lignocellulosics. A portion of the volume is devoted to molecular biology of the enzymes and the microbes involved in the conversion. Hydrolysis of cellulose continues to be of prime importance in the overall conversion scheme. Reaction kinetics and mechanisms of cellulases as well as the state-of-the-art methods of cellulase production by submerged fermentation and also by solid state fermentation are included in the volume. The latest advances made in dilute acid hydrolysis of cellulose are described. Finally, some exciting methods and perspectives for bioconverion of lignocellulosics into ethanol, organic acids and other value-added products are described. This volume should be useful to researchers in this area. It should also be helpful to those who want a concise overview of lignocellulosics.

This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Enzymic Hydrolysis of Cellulose and Related Materials documents the proceedings of a symposium held in March 1962. This book emphasizes the interests of contributors actively engaged in production and properties of the enzymes and cellulose decomposition. Despite the significance of enzymes, relatively little work has been done on this group of enzymes, which include cellulases, hemicellulases, xylanases, disaccharidases, and glycosidases. This compilation aims to have the biological aspects of celluloses and hemicelluloses recognized under the cellulose field, and the cellulases to be considered in future books about cellulose and wood. Other topics discussed in this selection include structural features of cellulose that influence its susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis; purification of cellulase and related enzymes; endwise degradation of cellulose; and applications for cellulases. This publication is beneficial to students and researchers conducting work on enzymes and cellulose decomposition.

Download or read book Fundamental Study of the Mechanism and Kinetics of Cellulose Hydrolysis by Acids and Enzymes Final Report June 1 1978 January 31 1981 written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are three basic enzymes (e.g., endoglucanase (C3, exoglucanase (C1) and cellobiase) comprising the majority of extracellular cellulase enzymes produced by the cellulolytic mycelial fungi, Trichoderma reesei, and other cellulolytic microorganisms. The enzymes exhibited different mode of actions in respect to the hydrolysis of cellulose and cellulose derived oligosaccharides. In combination, these enzymes complimented each other to hydrolyze cellulose to its basic constituent, glucose. The kinetics of cellobiase were developed on the basis of applying the pseudo-steady state assumption to hydrolyze cellobiose to glucose. The results indicated that cellobiase was subjected to end-product inhibition by glucose. The kinetic modeling of exoglucanase (C1) with respect to cellodextrins was studied. Both glucose and cellobiose were found to be inhibitors of this enzyme with cellobiose being a stronger inhibitor than glucose. Similarly, endoglucanase (C3 is subject to end-product inhibition by glucose. Crystallinity of the cellulose affects the rate of hydrolysis by cellulases. Hence, the changes in crystallinity of cellulose in relation to chemical pretreatment and enzyme hydrolysis was compared. The study of cellulase biosynthesis resulted in the conclusion that exo- and endo-glucanases are co-induced while cellobiase is synthesized independent of the other two enzymes. The multiplicity of cellulase enzymes are the end results of post-translational modification during and/or after the secretion of enzymes into growth environment.
