BIO BASED INDUSTRIES JOINT UNDERTAKING · Pre-treatment of lignocellulose with simultaneous removal of contaminants and separation of lignin and cellulosic fractions

Specific Challenge:Pre-treatment of lignocellulosic biomass is a crucial, although often overlooked step in processing: an optimised pre-treatment can increase productivity and reduce costs of subsequent processing stages. The quality of lignocellulosic feedstock is variable, both in terms of compo…
