Advances in Lignocellulosics Hydrolysis and in the Utilization of the Hydrolyzates

The debate if acid or enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosics will prevail over the other in the near future is still open. Different types of acid hydrolysis (use of concentrated acids, or diluted acids, and in this case use of extreme temperatures, or attempts to realize semi-continuous or continuous processes) are described. Advantages and inconveniences are described for each case.
