Fig. 4From: Comparison of saccharification and fermentation of steam exploded rice straw and rice huskOptimisation of enzyme loading for saccharification. Yields of glucose achieved when hydrolysing rice straw (circle) and husk (filled circle) steam exploded at optimum conditions (10 min at 210 and 220 °C, respectively). Glucose yields are expressed as a percentage of the maximum theoretical yield. Samples were digested whilst being agitated at a substrate concentration of 5 % (w/v) at 50 °C for 96 h in cellulase (Cellic® CTec2; between 0 and circa 22 FPU/g cellulose)Back to article page
