Abstract

When people are enjoying the convenience brought by sustained economic development, they are also faced with the enormous pressure from population, resources, and the environment. Agricultural waste is an important biomass resource whose main component is lignocellulose. As a by-product of agricultural production and renewable resources, utilizing the numerous resources legitimately not only can meet the needs of agricultural production but also can effectively reduce the production of environmental pollutants and damage to ecology. With the improvement of the level of economic development and science and technology, lignocellulose will play an increasingly important role in the improvement of the agricultural ecological environment.
