- Converts Cellulose I to cellulose II, improving cellulose digestibility
- Deferulylation of biomass, removal of lignin
- Cellulose swelling, destruction of cellulose crystal
- Work for mixed feedstocks-flexibility on biomass resources
Recovering sugars from ILs has been alos investigated. More questions remain on IL pretreatment:
- Is it effective on un-mill biomass such as wood chips and 1-2 inche agricultural residues?
- What about the moisture of wet biomass (in reality, it is hard to dry the biomass with moisture content < 5%) on IL stability?
- The recovery yield? Can be great than 99%?
- Any inhibition or toxic on enzymes and fementation microorganisms?
