Editor's Notes
what is the lignocellulosic biomass? It natural plant or residue of agricultural or forest industry, or they are modified genetic plants, which are the most abundant raw material on the Earth for the production of biofuels.
In chemical composition, lignocellulose mainly comprised by cellulose 40~50%, hemicellulose 25~ 30% and lignin 15~25%. Lignocellulosic biomass have been used as material for bioethanol production because they have cellulose and hemicellulose. An ideal bioethanol production can covert all cellulose and hemicellulose component to ethanol. However, this performance meets a difficulty, recalcitrant structure of lignocellulose.
This slide shows a model structure of a biomass fiber. Cellulose is straight polymer, which is linked by hemicellulose, a branched polymer. And this structure is covered by lignin, a phenolic polymer. The protection of lignin help the biomass against the attack from nature. Therefore, first step in bioethanol production, named pretreatment is essential, which aim to breakdown this structure.
By the effect of pretreatment, lignin is broken and removed, the polysaccharide level is reduced and the surface area of substrate are increased. To archive these target, biological or chemical pretreatment have been used widely. Biological pretreatment is the method using microorganism to incubation and the enzyme will degrade biomass. Chemical pretreatment use alkaline or dilute acid to breakdown biomass structure. Compare to biological pretreatment, chemical shows advantages in experiment time and yield.
After pretreatment step, pretreated sample will be use to hydrolysis to produce mono-sugar and then this sugar will produce ethanol through microorganism fermentation.
In bioethanol production, several microorganism were reported as fermenter such as bacterial, yeast or white rot fungi. This picture shows the fruiting body stage of white rot fungi. Compare to other, white rot fungi have advantage in bioethanol production because their enzyme can participate in all step: lignin degradation, saccharides hydrolysis and mono-sugar fermentation. In this study, white rot fungus Phlebia sp. MG-60 was used to produce ethanol from Japanese bamboo.
This slide shows you picture of Japanese bamboo, Phyllostachys edulis, or moso bamboo. With the high growth rate, wide distribution in nature, it is considered to be material for bioethanol production.
By all reason mentioned above, this study was conducted as the following process
Firstly, bamboo sample were cut and prepared to 100~42 mesh size and extracted by ethanol and benzene solution to remove extractive and ash. The sample after extraction is referred as initial sample. Initial sample after that was treated by sodium hydroxide solution at 120oC. After pretreatment, pretreated sample was used to check chemical composition and saccharification rate. Bioethanol production from pretreated bamboo was carried out by the using two strategies: Consolidated bioprocessing and sSSF. In CBP, the production was done without the addition of commercial hydrolytic enzymes. In the sSSF, the fermentation experiment was finished without the addition of nutrition.
