Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is an apparatus and a method for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass feedstock, such as wheat straw, to ethanol and other products. The feedstock is subjected to continuous pressurized hydrothermal pre-treatment without addition of chemicals, and a liquid and a fibre fraction are produced. The fibre fraction is subjected to enzymatic liquefaction and saccharification. (Fig. 1 to accompany the abstract) 0 (a C * C.C) C). EL (n ll C>-)
