Process for nanocellulose (NC) production through enzymatic hydrolysis. (A) Pretreatments of the lignocellulosic biomass for cellulose extraction; (B) Controlled enzymatic hydrolysis for production of cellulose nanofibers and cellulose nanocrystals (rod-like and spherical) and their respective sizes; (C) Indication of the possible application of mechanical treatment after enzymatic hydrolysis, usually employed to obtain more uniform particles.
