Effect of a Nonionic Surfactant on Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Lignocellulose Based on Lignocellulosic Features and Enzyme Adsorption.

ABSTRACT: Reduction in the adsorption of cellulase onto lignin has been thought to be the common reason for the improvement of enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose (EHLC) by a nonionic surfactant (NIS). Few research studies have focused on the relationship between lignocellulosic features and NIS for improving EHLC. This study investigated the impact of Tween20 on the enzymatic hydrolysis and enzyme adsorption of acid-treated and alkali-treated sugarcane bagasse (SCB), cypress, and Pterocarpus soyauxii (PS) with and without being ground. After addition of Tween20, the adsorption of cellulase onto unground and ground alkali-treated SCB increased, and the unground acid-treated SCB exhibited little change in adsorption cellulase, while other unground and ground, treated samples showed decrease
