Application of Response Surface Methodology for Optimization of Cellulose Solution by ZnCl2

Article Preview

Abstract:

Corn stover is a largely feasible and cheap renewable resource with low commercial value. An attractive alternative is utilization of corn stover for chemical industry,medicine,biochemistry etc. However, the production costs are still too high to apply on commercialization. The purpose of this study was to use the response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize of cellulose salvation by ZnCl2 after the steam explosion .The solution of cellulose that had been pretreated with 87% ZnCl2 at 139 °C for 49 min resulted in an optimum solubility of 76.2%.
