Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is a naturally occurring, renewable resource that is utilized to produce a variety of high-value-added products, such as fuels, acids, and building block chemicals. The pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass is a crucial step in the deconstruction and fractionation of its components. Organic acids, such as formic, acetic, lactic, and maleic acids, have been widely studied for their effectiveness in lignocellulose pretreatment. Organic acid-based pretreatment techniques are gaining increased attention due to their ability to selectively separate hemicellulose and cellulose, promote oligomer formation, and minimize byproducts. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the various advancements in the science and application of organic acids for the pretreatment of lignocellulose. Furthermore, the significant challenges of organic acid recovery after pretreatment are highlighted, and different recovery methods are discussed. The future challenges related to utilizing organic acids for lignocellulose pretreatment are summarized, with a strong emphasis on adopting a sustainable approach to converting valuable bioresources into renewable products.

Abstract
An anaerobic pneu-mechanical digester (PD) was designed to ferment lignocellulosic compounds. So, wheat and rice straws were pretreated using an ultrasound-acid, and then thermal-acid hydrolysis was conducted. Hydrolysis optimization was performed using the response surface method and the optimal points for time, temperature, and acid concentration were 45 min, 148.4 °C, and 2.04 % v/v, respectively. Cold plasma was then used as detoxification to reduce the amount of inhibitory compounds and acids. This method was capable of reducing the amounts of acetic acid, formic acid and furfural by 73, 83 and 68 % in hydrolyzed biomass, respectively. The biomass was fermented in a PD for 20 days and compared with a conventional digester (CD). The obtained results showed that the PD could increase the efficiency of bioethanol by 37 % in the detoxified state and 22 % in the non-detoxified state after 20 days of fermentation compared to the CD. Moreover, H2S, CO and O2 were measured during fermentation process. In PD, the amount of H2S and O2 was lower than CD, but CO was significantly higher in the PD.

Abstract
Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the world, and its popularity has prompted the necessity to constantly increase the variety and improve the characteristics of coffee as a general commodity. The popularity of coffee as a staple drink has also brought undesired side effects, since coffee production, processing and consumption are all accompanied by impressive quantities of coffee-related wastes which can be a threat to the environment. In this review, we integrated the main studies on fermentative yeasts used in coffee-related industries with emphasis on two different directions: (1) the role of yeast strains in the postharvest processing of coffee, the possibilities to use them as starting cultures for controlled fermentation and their impact on the sensorial quality of processed coffee, and (2) the potential to use yeasts to capitalize on coffee wastes—especially spent coffee grounds—in the form of eco-friendly biomass, biofuel or fine chemical production.

Abstract
This paper deals with the investigation of ultrasound (US) pretreatment of brewer's spent grain (BSG) as a means of releasing fermentable sugars, and the subsequent production of ethanol from this lignocellulosic biomass. Using response surface methodology (RSM), the influence of US power, time, temperature and biomass loading on fermentable sugar yield from BSG was studied. The optimal conditions were found to be 20% US power, 60 min, 26.3 °C, and 17.3% w/v of biomass in water. Under these conditions, an approximate 2.1-fold increase in reducing sugar yield (325 ± 6 mg/g of biomass) was achieved, relative to untreated BSG (151.1 ± 10 mg/g of biomass). In contrast to acid or alkaline pretreatment approaches, the use of water obviated the need for neutralization for the recovery of sugars. The characterization of native and pretreated BSG was performed by HPLC, FTIR, SEM and DSC. Fermentation studies using S. cerevisiae growing on pretreated BSG resulted in a conversion of 66% of the total sugar content ininto ethanol with an ethanol content of 17.73 ± 2 g/ 100 g of pretreated BSG. These results suggest that ultrasound pretreatment is a promising technology for increased valorization of BSG as a feedstock for production of bioethanol, and points ton the need for further work in this area.

Abstract
Conversion of renewable biomass by time- and energy-efficient techniques remains an important challenge. Herein, plasma catalytic liquefaction (PCL) is employed to achieve rapid liquefaction of microalgae under mild conditions. The choice of the catalyst affects both the liquefaction efficiency and the yield of products. The acid catalyst is more effective and gave a liquid yield of 73.95 wt % in 3 min, as opposed to 69.80 wt % obtained with the basic catalyst in 7 min. Analyses of the thus-formed products and the processing environment reveal that the enhanced PCL performance is linked to the rapid increase in temperature under the effect of plasma-induced electric fields and the generation of large quantities of reactive species. Moreover, the obtained solid residue can be simply upgraded to a carbon product suitable for supercapacitor applications. Therefore, the proposed strategy may provide a new avenue for fast and comprehensive utilization of biomass under benign conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poplars are considered suitable dedicated energy crops, with abundant cellulose and hemicellulose, and huge surplus biomass potential in China. Xylan, the major hemicellulosic component, contributes to the structural stability of wood and represents a tremendous quantity of biobased chemicals for fuel production. Monomeric xylose conversion to value-added chemicals such as furfural, xylitol, and xylonic acid could greatly improve the economics of pulp-paper industry and biorefinery. Acetic acid (HAc) is used as a friendly and recyclable selective catalyst amenable to xylan degradation and xylooligosaccharides production from lignocellulosic materials. However, HAc catalyst usually works much feebly at inert woods than agricultural straws. In this study, effects of different iron species in HAc media on poplar xylan degradation were systematically compared, and a preferable Fe3+-assisted HAc hydrolysis process was proposed for comparable xylose-hydrolysate recovery (XHR) and enzymatic saccharification of cellulose. RESULTS In presence of 6.5% HAc with 0.17-0.25 wt% Fe3+, xylose yield ranged between 72.5 and 73.9%. Additionally, pretreatment was effective in poplar delignification, with a lignin yield falling between 38.6 and 42.5%. Under similar conditions, saccharification efficiency varied between 60.3 and 65.9%. Starting with 100 g poplar biomass, a total amount of 12.7-12.8 g of xylose and 18.8-22.8 g of glucose were harvested from liquid streams during the whole process of Fe3+-HAc hydrolysis coupled with enzymatic saccharification. Furthermore, the enhancement mechanism of Fe3+ coupled with HAc was investigated after proof-of-concept experiments. Beechwood xylan and xylose were treated under the same condition as poplar sawdust fractionation, giving understanding of the effect of catalysts on the hydrolysis pathway from wood xylan to xylose and furfural by Fe3+-HAc. CONCLUSIONS The Fe3+-assisted HAc hydrolysis process was demonstrated as an effective approach to the wood xylose and other monosaccharides production. Synergistic effect of Lewis acid site and aqueous acetic acid provided a promising strategy for catalytic valorization of poplar biomass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the intact structure of lignocellulosic biomass, pretreatment was a prerequisite to improve the enzymatic hydrolysis by disrupting the recalcitrant lignocellulose and increasing the accessibility of cellulose to enzyme. In this study, an alkaline hydrogen peroxide (AHP) pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse with various loadings of H2O2 (1.25-6.25 wt%) at temperatures of 60-160 °C was proposed to degrade hemicellulose/lignin and improve the enzymatic digestibility. RESULTS It was found that increasing H2O2 loadings during pretreatment lead to the enhancement of substrate digestibility, whereas the alkali (only NaOH)-pretreated solid generated higher glucose yield than that pretreated under AHP pretreatment with lower loading of H2O2. This enhancement of enzymatic digestibility was due to the degradation of hemicellulose and lignin. Furthermore, Tween 80 was added to promote enzymatic digestibility, however, the increased yields were different with various substrates and hydrolysis time. The highest glucose yield of 77.6% was obtained after pretreatment at 160 °C for 60 min with 6.25% H2O2 and the addition of Tween 80, representing 89.1% of glucose in pretreated substrate. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that the AHP pretreatment could greatly enhance the enzymatic saccharification. The addition of Tween 80 played remarkable performances in promoting the glucose yield during enzymatic hydrolysis by stabilizing and protecting the enzyme activity. This study provided an economical feasible and gradual process for the generation of glucose, which will be subsequently converted to bioethanol and bio-chemicals.

Abstract
To minimize the serious environmental pollution caused by food byproducts, soybean curd residue was used as the substrate to ferment polysaccharides by Morchella esculenta. Water-soluble crude polysaccharides (CMP) were purified by different gradient concentrations (30%, 60%, and 90%) of ethanol into three precipitation fractions. The experimental results indicated that the precipitated polysaccharides by the ethanol concentration of 60% (PMP) had the highest purity, containing rhamnose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, glucose, and galactose, with the molar ratio of 0.08:0.25:0.16:0.07:0.28:1.00. The physicochemical properties were revealed by SEM, AFM, FTIR, NMR, and Congo red test. Furthermore, the measurement of antioxidant activities in vitro demonstrated that PMP exhibited higher antioxidant capacities with the dose-dependent manner than CMP and polysaccharides from unfermented soybean curd (USP). Overall, the results suggested that PMP had attractive functional activity which could be potentially utilized in functional food industries. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The polysaccharides from fungi sources are increasingly being used in functional food and pharmaceutical industry. In allusion to the problem of polysaccharides fermented by edible fungi, such as low yield, high cost, and hard to controllable. Soybean curd residue (SCR), a food waste, has been successfully used for the production of polysaccharides and graded ethanol was used to enhance polysaccharides production, lower the difficulty and homologous costs of purity. The results indicated that the purified polysaccharides displayed excellent antioxidant activities on scavenging DPPH and hydroxyl radicals. The outcomes of this work can provide technical support for comprehensive utilization of SCR and references for promotion and application of polysaccharides fermented from SCR via Morchella esculenta in food and medicine fields.

[PMID: 30077881 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2018.07.112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2018] [Revised: 07/22/2018] [Accepted: 07/23/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
In this work, rapeseed straw was pretreated with FeCl3 to achieve high sugar recoveries. Temperature (120-160 °C), and FeCl3 concentration (0.1-0.3 M) were selected as factors and modified according to a central composite experimental design. The pretreatment conditions were expressed using the combined severity, which ranged from -0.12 to 2.29. Considering a double criterion that maximizes simultaneously the recovery of hemicellulosic sugars in the liquid fraction from pretreatment and the enzymatic hydrolysis yield, the optimal conditions were found to be 138 °C and 0.25 M salt concentration. The FeCl3 pretreatment of rapeseed straw under these optimized conditions resulted in 75% hemicellulosic sugar recovery and 53% enzymatic hydrolysis yield. Thereby, 100 g dry rapeseed straw yielded 37.8 g sugars, equivalent to 70% maximum potential sugar in rapeseed straw.

[PMID: 29885498 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2018.05.111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2018] [Revised: 05/30/2018] [Accepted: 05/31/2018] [Indexed: 05/08/2023]
Abstract
An efficient pretreatment with various concentrations of FeCl3 (0.005-0.2 mol/L) was developed to extract hemicellulose in sugarcane bagasse and enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose in pretreated solids. It was found that 0.025 mol/L FeCl3 pretreated substrate yielded a high glucose yield of 80.1% during enzymatic hydrolysis. Then the characterization of raw material and pretreated solids was carried out to better understand how hemicellulose removal affected subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis. In addition, Tween 80 and Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) were added to promote enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated substrate. Together with that obtained from pretreatment, the highest glucose yield reached 97.7% with addition of Tween 80, meanwhile, a reduction of 50% loading of enzyme yielded the same level of glucose. However, the increased yields with additives decreased gradually as the hydrolysis time was extended. Furthermore, the enhancement mechanisms of Tween 80 and BSA were determined.
