New publication – Phenolic inhibitors of the conversion of rice straw and husks into bioethanol

You are here: Home / news / New publication – Phenolic inhibitors of the conversion of rice straw and husks into bioethanol

22nd June 2018 by Klaus Wellner

Converting lignocellulose to bioethanol has to overcome several obstacles. The material is not only mechanically stable, but the phenolic compounds it contains can also inhibit the microorganisms that convert it into ethanol. This paper investigates the content of these compounds in rice straw and husks.
