Cellulosic materials consist of three major components, namely, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. The two modes of converting the carbohydrate components into their constituent sugars are enzymatic hydrolysis and acid hydrolysis. The former has been reviewed in the preceding chapter [38,39, 81 ]. The present chapter covers the latter with the focus on mechanism and kinetics of acid hydrolysis.
