Figure 1From: Impact of cultivar selection and process optimization on ethanol yield from different varieties of sugarcaneContour plots for xylose recovery as a function of pretreatment temperature and reaction time. The acid loading was kept constant at 0.5% (w/w). The recovery is expressed as percentage of theoretical value for (A) variety 55, (B) variety 70, (C) variety 74, and (D) industrial bagasse 120.Back to article page
