Challenges of ethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass

The present work aimed to tackle two of the major challenges in bioethanol production from lignocellulosic feedstocks: (i) high tolerance of microorganisms to lignocellulosic inhibitors, and (ii) microbial contamination avoidance. Lignocellulosic inhibitors are an important fraction of spent sulphit...
