Enzymatically-Mediated Co-Production of Cellulose Nanocrystals and Fermentable Sugars

Enzymatically-Mediated Co-Production of Cellulose Nanocrystals and Fermentable Sugars

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) can be extracted from cellulosic materials through the degradation of non-crystalline cellulose domains in the feedstock via acid hydrolysis. However, the sugars released from the hydrolysis process cannot be easily recovered from the acid waste stream. In this study, c...
