CONVERTING LIGNOCELLULOSIC FEEDSTOCK TO FUEL
A process for converting lignocellulosic biomass to fuel, wherein lignocellulosic feedstock is soaked in a sulfuric acid solution to demineralize the feedstock, the demineralized feedstock is pretreated at a temperature between 150° C. and 230° C. and a pH between 1 and 2.5, at least part of the pre...

description | A process for converting lignocellulosic biomass to fuel, wherein lignocellulosic feedstock is soaked in a sulfuric acid solution to demineralize the feedstock, the demineralized feedstock is pretreated at a temperature between 150° C. and 230° C. and a pH between 1 and 2.5, at least part of the pretreated material is converted to a fermentation production such as ethanol, and at least a portion of a secondary stream, such as still bottoms from the distillation of ethanol, is converted to biogas by anaerobic digestion. Soaking the lignocellulosic feedstock in sulfuric acid solution reduces the amount of sulfuric acid required for the pretreatment, and thus the amount of sulfate carried downstream to the anaerobic digestion. This increases the biogas yield and/or xylose yield. A recycling process, wherein mineralized soaking liquid produced in the soaking process is fed to cation exchange to remove minerals, reduces excess waste of the sulfuric acid and water usage. |
