Efficient production of lactic acid from cellulose and xylan in sugarcane bagasse by newly isolated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Levilactobacillus brevis through simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation process.

ABSTRACT: Sugarcane bagasse is one of the promising lignocellulosic feedstocks for bio-based chemicals production. However, to date, most research focuses mainly on the cellulose conversion process, while hemicellulose remains largely underutilized. The conversion of glucose and xylose derived from lignocellulosic biomass can be a promising strategy to improve utilization efficiencies of resources, energy, and water, and at the same time reduce wastes generated from the process. Here, attempts were made to convert cellulose and xylan in sugarcane bagasse (SB) into lactic acid (LA) through a pre-hydrolysis and simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SScF) process using newly isolated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum TSKKU P-8 and Levilactobacillus brevis CHKKU N-6. The process y
