Alkali pretreatment of wheat straw was optimized by response surface methodology to maximize yields of fermentable sugars in subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis and to remove maximum lignin in order to improve rheological attributes of the media. The effects of pretreatment conditions on biomass properties were studied using the Expert Designer software. Concentration of sodium hydroxide and temperature were the factors most affecting pretreatment efficiency. At the optimum (80°C, 39 min, 0.18 g NaOH and 0.06 g lime per g of raw biomass), 93.1 ± 1.0% conversion of cellulose to glucose after enzymatic hydrolysis and 80.3 ± 1.2% yield of monosaccharides (glucose plus xylose and arabinose) from cellulose and hemicellulose of wheat straw were achieved.

Utilization of wheat straw for bio-based chemicals production is a research focus. In this work, experiments were conducted to study the preparation conditions of activated carbon from formic acid hydrolysis residue of wheat straw applying response surface methodology. The effects of activation reaction temperature, retention time and activator quantity on the decolorizing capacity of activated carbon were dealt with in this paper. Optimal preparation conditions were abtained by response surface methodology as followed: the content of ZnCl2 solution was 14.2%, reaction temperature was 798°C and retained time was 30 mins with a decolorizing capacity of 15.8 mL methylene blue. Results indicated that the technology was available.

Abstract To maximize fermentable sugars production, response surface methodology (RSM) was adopted to optimize pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat straw powder (WSP) using the crude cellulases preparation containing xylanases from Aspergillus niger HQ-1. Factors of pretreatment including sodium hydroxide concentration, pretreatment time and temperature were found to have significant effects on sugars production. Results indicated that WSP with particle size 0.3 mm should be pretreated using 1.8% (w/v) sodium hydroxide solution with 25.0% (w/v) of solid loading at 94.0°C for 46.0 min and the optimized pretreatment conditions could result in 90.9% of cellulose recovery, 54.6% of hemicellulose recovery and 72.7% of lignin removal, respectively. Furthermore, variables of enzymatic hydrolysis including enzyme loading, biomass loading and reaction time were proved to have significant effects on sugars yields. After hydrolysis at 50°C for 44.8 h with 7.1% (w/v) of biomass loading, 8.1 FPU/g of enzyme loading and 0.2% (w/v) of Tween-80, maximum yields of reducing sugar (632.92 mg/g) and xylose (149.83 mg/g) could be obtained, respectively. In addition, holocellulose and hemicellulose conversion were 81.6% and 80.0%, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report about systematic optimization of sodium hydroxide pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of WSP using RSM.

NaOH/urea (NU) pretreatment at lower than 0 °C has been frequently applied for improving bio-conversion of lignocellulose, but the wastewater generated from the pretreatment process is hard to dispose. KOH/urea (KU) pretreatment for enhancing bioconversion of lignocellulose has recently attracted researchers’ attention due to the recycling of wastewater for facilitating crops’ growth. This study compared the effects of NU and KU pretreatments at cold conditions on the enzymatic hydrolysis and bioethanol yield from wheat straw (WS). By using response surface methodology an optimal pretreatment with an equal ratio of alkali/urea (4% w/v) at −20 °C for 3 h was established. The enzymatic hydrolysis of KU-treated WS was 81.17%, which was similar to that of NU-treated WS (83.72%) under the same condition. It means that KU pretreatment has equal ability to NU pretreatment to improve enzymatic saccharification of lignocellulose. KU pretreatment has the promising potential to replace NU pretreatment for facilitating bioconversion of lignocellulose in cold conditions due to the clean way to recycle its wastewater as fertilizer for crop growth. Hence, KU pretreatment combined with enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation could be a promising green way to cellulosic ethanol production with zero waste emission.
