Zusammenfassung:A method of processing a biomass material, the method comprising; using a screw conveyor to deliver a biomass material to a first treatment cell equipped with a first electron beam device, irradiating the biomass material with electron beams using the first electron beam device, and conveying the biomass material with a screw conveyor from the first treatment cell. Irradiation of biomass with electrons promotes scission and reduces recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass
