PROCESS FOR ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS FROM A MIXTURE OF PRE-TREATED SUBSTRATES OF DIFFERENT POROSITIES

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for enzymatic hydrolysis in which, under agitation, pre-treated lignocellulosic substrates are brought into contact with water and with enzymes such that the mixture has a content of dry matter of between 12 and 35% by weight, said process being characterised in that a mixture is used of at least two pre-treated lignocellulosic substrates with different porosities, at least one of the substrates being a substrate said to be of low porosity having a porosity of less than 60% of the volume and the other substrate a substrate said to be of high porosity having a porosity greater than or equal to 60% of the volume, and said substrate of low porosity being present in a quantity of at least 30% by weight in relation to the total weight of said mixture.
