Sr. No Model name Substrate used Pre-treatment method Operating parameters used to fit kinetic data Order of reaction Key points References
1 Psuedo-first order rate kinetics Banana skin, cowpea shells, maize stalks, rice husk Acid hydrolysis (Sulphuric acid) Temperature, acid concentration First Increase in temperature and acid concentration improves sugar yields [115]
2 Semi-mechanistic kinetic model Sugarcane straw Hydrothermal Temperature, concentration profiles of monomers formed First Reaction rate increased with increase in temperature [116]
3 Model for delignification Sorghum, Wheat straw, Bamboo Alkali peroxide Alkali loading, pre-treatment temperature and enzyme loading First Extent of delignification increases with increase in alkaline loading. Increase in temperature and enzyme concentration increases the conversion. [117]
4 MM model for cellulase Miscanthus and oat hulls, oil palm petiole Chemical (combined method using Nitric acid and Sodium hydroxide) Substrate loading First Rate of enzyme hydrolysis increases with increase in substrate concentration [118,119]
5 Chrastil's model Apple Pomace Combined (Alkaline + acid + enzymatic) Mixing speed, substrate concentration Better sugar yields are obtained at lower mixing speeds, maximum constant substrate concentration [120]
6 HCH-1 three parameter model AFEX treated wheat straw AFEX Enzyme loading,
Substrate concentration
First Sugar yield increases with increased substrate concentration [121]
7 Langmuir adsorption model Corn stover, defatted and bleached cotton linter Dilute alkali and acid, cellulosic solvent Substrate concentration, enzyme loading Sugar yields were better at lower substrate loadings and a wide range of enzyme concentrations [122,123]
8 Intermediate and end product inhibition Corn stover Dilute acid Substrate concentration, temperature, product concentration First Model predicts well the hydrolysis performance [124]
9 Valjamae and Kopelman model Passion fruit peel Solvent extraction Glucose concentration, enzyme ratio Glucose concentration increases with increase in enzyme volume ratio [114]
10 Deactivation and reactivation reaction rate mechanism Corn cob Alkaline peroxide oxidation Substrate concentration, hydrolysis time Second Product concentration reaches maximum at optimum substrate loading and hydrolysis time [125]
