Total reuse of brewer’s spent grain in chemical and biotechnological processes for the production of added-value compounds

Brewer’s spent grain was fractionated by means of three different procedures: dilute acid hydrolysis, for the hemicellulose recovery; alkaline hydrolysis, for the lignin solubilization, and enzymatic hydrolysis, for the cellulose conversion into glucose. The best hydrolysis conditions were optimized...
