Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of saccharifying biomass, such as algae or agricultural by-products by performing a high-pressure extrusion pulverization process for the biomass, such as algae or agricultural by-products, and more particularly to a method of saccharifying biomass, which includes homogenizing and crushing algae or agricultural by-products, and extruding the algae or agricultural by-products through a micro-diameter tube to pulverize the algae or agricultural by-products. Non-biodegradable polymers, such as cellulose, which is a polysaccharide included in biomass, such as algae or agricultural by-products, hemicelluloses, starch, and complex polysaccharide, are hydrolyzed at high glycosylation efficiency through an eco-friendly pretreatment process using water.
Abstract:
A high-pressure liquefied extract of marine algae for producing bioethanol and a method of producing the liquid extract from marine algae under high pressure, and a method of producing the bioethanol from the high-pressure liquid extract by fermentation with yeast are disclosed. According to the production method of bioethanol using marine algae, the high-pressure liquefied extract can be obtained in high yield and fermentation time can be also reduced. Consequently, the yield of bioethanol is increased. Furthermore, the method gives economical and environmentally friendly values from natural marine algae.
