Abstract
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a sugar and/or fermentation product from lignocellulosic material.
Claims14
A process for preparation of a sugar product from lignocellulosic material, said process comprising:
- a) pretreating the lignocellulosic material,
- b) enzymatically hydrolysing the pretreated lignocellulosic material in an enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain the sugar product in a process comprising:
- i) first treating the lignocellulosic material with an enzyme composition comprising a lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase and a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of a cellobiohydrolase, an endoglucanase, a beta-glucosidase, a beta-xylosidase, an endoxylanase and any combination thereof, then
- ii) adding oxygen to the mixture comprising the lignocellulosic material and the enzyme composition, and thereafter
- iii) adding additional lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase to the mixture comprising the lignocellulosic material and the enzyme composition, and
- c) optionally, recovering the sugar product.
