Figure 7

Comparison of cellulose conversion levels after (a) 16 h, (b) 24 h, (c) 48 h, and (d) 72 h for the starting cellulose I, NaOH treated, NH 3 treated at 25°C, and NH 3 treated at 130°C. (Note: The highly digestible, high amorphous content, corn stover cellulose I sample is connected to the other cellulose I samples by a dashed line).
