Composition of various biomass substrates and maximum expected concentration of glucose, xylose, and lignin in pretreated biomass hydrolyzates (1% glucan loading basis) tested in this study
| Substrates | Biomass composition | Maximum concentration (g/L) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glucan | Xylan | Lignin | Glucose | Xylose | Lignin | |
| IL-CS | 46.9% | 29.8% | 2.7% | 11.11 | 7.22 | 0.58 |
| AFEX-CS | 34.6% | 19.6% | 11.0% | 11.11 | 5.66 | 3.18 |
| DA-CS | 60.6% | 3.3% | 32.9% | 11.11 | 0.62 | 5.43 |
Compositional data are on a dry weight basis. Lignin values reported here are for acid-insoluble Klason lignin only. All analyses were carried out in triplicate with mean values reported. Standard deviations in all cases were less than 10% of the reported mean values.
