Kinetic study of biomass hydrolysis under high pressure conditions

This study was focused on the kinetics of lignocellulosic biomass pre-treatment, in particular CO2-assisted autohydrolysis. The temperature was fixed at 180 ºC, varying pressure from 0 (CO2-free autohydrolysis), 20, 35 to 50 bar. For every pressure, a set of isothermal reactions was performed for va...
