Enhanced enzymatic hydrolysis and structural features of corn stover by FeCl3 pretreatment
L Liu, J Sun, M Li, S Wang, H Pei, J Zhang - Bioresource Technology, 2009 - Elsevier
Corn stover was pretreated with FeCl3 to remove almost all of the hemicellulose present and
then hydrolyzed with cellulase and β-glucosidase to produce glucose. Enzymatic hydrolysis …
