Abstract

The paper presents a fundamental analysis of the processing steps in the production of ethanol from southern red oak (Quercus falcata Michx) by two-stage dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis. Data for hemicellulose and cellulose hydrolysis are correlated using models. The information is used to develop and evaluate a process design.
