The main objective of the project is to study the cleavage of lignocellulosic material from sugarcane bagasse using ionizing radiation from an industrial electron beam accelerator, in order to make easier the cellulose hydrolysis and the fermentation of their sugars to ethanol biofuel production. Sugarcane bagasse generally contain up to 45% glucose polymer cellulose, much of which is in …
