Abstract

Hydrothermal pretreatment was discussed as an efficient pretreatment method used to process biomass feedstock prior to bioethanol fermentation. Several examples of processes using different reactors and different feedstocks have been presented for comparison. Feedstocks discussed included energy crops (exemplified by prairie grasses), agricultural residues (exemplified by date palm trimmings), and extremophiles (exemplified by Salicornia bigelovii). Optimization studies have been performed to find the most efficient conditions for treating particular biomasses, which in conclusion have been found to produce similar results (200–210 °C and ~10 min). Pretreated solids have been fermented to measure the bioethanol potential following the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation protocol with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results revealed a considerable increase (at least 50%) in enzyme digestibility and fermentability of the pretreated pulps compared to the raw biomass, finally reaching 77–100% of theoretical ethanol yield (depending on biomass).
