- W1554278643 abstract "The fossil fuel-based economy is facing several problems and challenges, as stated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC (IPCC, 2007). These challenges involve the increasing emissions of CO2, decreasing reserves and increasing energy prices. A potential solution to the problem could be in the form of lignocellulosic biomass as an alternative and sustainable energy source of the future. It can be used to produce chemicals and biofuels, which do not compete with food production (Huber et al., 2006; Lynd et al., 1999). Extensive research into the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass is currently being undertaken all over the world. Biomass as a carbon based material is composed of a mixture of organic molecules containing carbon and hydrogen. It usually possesses atoms of oxygen and nitrogen whilst including small quantities of other elements, such as metals. The carbon used to construct biomass is absorbed from the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2) by plant life, using energy from the sun. Therefore biomass is the most abundant renewable resource available. The major constituents of lignocellulosic biomass are polymeric carbohydrates (cellulose and hemicellulose) and lignin (Zhang & Zhao, 2010). The term “lignocellulosic biomass” is often used to describe the material that composes the plant cell wall, i.e. cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin. However, the plant cell contains different layers that differ in structure and chemical composition. As a result of the organisation and interaction between these polymeric structures, the plant cell wall is naturally recalcitrant to the biological degradation (da Costa Sousa et al., 2009). Conventional methods to convert lignocellulosic materials to sugars have been in the form of acid hydrolysis or the use of high pressures and temperatures. These methods are either energy-intensive or require the recirculation of acid. There are several solvents which dissolve cellulose, but these usually degrade the cellulose during the process (Holm et al., 2009; Mosier et al., 2005). Although different process steps are necessary in order to convert the biomass to useful products, the intermediate product is mostly glucose. As indicated above, the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass is a significant tool in the practical conversion processes, and it will be considered in this article." @default.
