Bioalcohol Production : Biochemical Conversion Of Lignocellulosic Biomass.
Bioethanol is one of the main biofuels currently used as a petroleum-substitute in transport applications. However, conflicts over food supply and land use have made its production and utilisation a controversial topic. Second generation bioalcohol production technology, based on (bio)chemical conve...
