Design and Optimization of Sulfuric Acid Pretreatment of Extracted Olive Tree Biomass Using Response Surface Methodology
Olive tree biomass (OTB) represents an interesting feedstock for bioethanol production. In this study, olive tree pruning was water extracted and pretreated by dilute sulfuric acid to achieve high sugar recoveries from cellulosic and hemicellulosic fractions. Temperature (160 to 200 °C), acid concen...
