BIOCONVERSION OF KNOT REJECTS FROM A SULPHITE PULP MILL TO ETHANOL

BIOCONVERSION OF KNOT REJECTS FROM A SULPHITE PULP MILL TO ETHANOL

Knot rejects obtained from pulp screening after sulphite pulping are difficult to dewater, which makes landfilling expensive and burning inefficient. The rejects were found to contain up to 50% cellulose, which is very susceptible to enzymatic hydrolysis to glucose. Knot rejects were hydrolyzed at 2...
