Process simulation for xylitol production from brewer’s spent grain in a Colombian biorefinery. Part 1: Xylose production from arabinoxilans extracted by the alkaline pretreatment of BSG

Process simulation for xylitol production from brewer’s spent grain in a Colombian biorefinery. Part 1: Xylose production from arabinoxilans extracted by the alkaline pretreatment of BSG

This work presents the simulation in Aspen Plusr of a process to obtain arabinoxylans (AX) from Brewer’s Spent Grain (BSG), which is the major byproduct of the brewing industry. The process is divided into two stages: alkaline pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. These stages cover the extraction...
