Bioethanol is recognized as a valuable substitute for renewable energy sources to meet the
fuel and energy demand of the nation, considered an environmentally friendly resource …

Currently, most of the energy demand around the world is met from crude oil, coal and
natural gas. Due to the fluctuations in price of crude oil, depletion of fossil fuel and increased …

The slow decomposition rate of the reluctant structure of lignocellulose in agricultural waste
is the great limitation of composting processes, which can be averted by pretreatment …

Lignin modifying or extracellular enzymes secreted by the white rot fungi have the ability of
degrading wide range of lignocellulosic substrates and organic pollutants. Lignocellulosic …

The biological pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass is a low-cost and eco-friendly method
for facilitating enzymatic hydrolysis. In this study, strains with lignin depletion capability were …

The aim of this study is to optimize Organosolv pretreatment parameters for efficient lignin
