Kinetic modeling of oxidative-short-term lime pretreatment of biomass Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • Oxidative lime pretreatment is effective to increase digestibility of lignocellulosic resources. Kinetic models for oxygen delignification were developed to gain insight into the pretreatment method. These models can be used in the design of commercial-scale equipment and process control and optimization. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the AIChE Spring National Meeting and 5th Global Congress on Process Safety (Tampa, FL 4/26-30/2009).
