ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS OF PRE-TREATED LIGNOCELLULOSE-CONTAINING MATERIAL IN THE PRESENCE OF DEINKING PAPER SLUDGE

摘要

A method for producing a fermentation product from a lignocellulose-containing material comprises pre-treating the lignocellulose-containing material; introducing paper mill sludge to the pre-treated lignocellulose-containing material; exposing the pre-treated lignocellulose-containing material to an effective amount of hydrolyzing enzyme; and adding a fermenting organism to produce a fermentation product. In an embodiment, the paper mill sludge comprises deinking paper sludge.
