Title:
PRETREATMENT METHOD FOR CELLULOSE-CONTAINING BIOMASS, PRODUCTION METHOD FOR SACCHARIFYING BIOMASS COMPOSITION, AND SUGAR PRODUCTION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/091890
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides: [1] a pretreatment method which improves the saccharification performance of a cellulose-containing biomass as a saccharification starting material, and which includes a step (1) in which the cellulose-containing biomass is pulverized, a step (2) in which the pulverized cellulose-containing biomass is hydrothermally treated, and a step (3) in which the hydrothermally treated cellulose-containing biomass is finely pulverized, said pretreatment method wherein, in step (3), the fine pulverization is performed using a refiner or a disk mill fitted with a plate or a disk not provided with a passage passing from the centre thereof in the circumferential direction; [2] a production method for a saccharifying biomass composition, said production method wherein the aforementioned pretreatment method is implemented; and [3] a sugar production method in which the saccharifying biomass composition obtained using the aforementioned production method is subjected to hydrolysis.
