Abstract
A method of producing a sugar liquid from cellulose-containing biomass includes step (1) of hydrolyzing cellulose-containing biomass by a filamentous fungus-derived cellulase; and step (2) of filtering a hydrolysate obtained in step (1) through an ultrafiltration membrane to recover the filamentous fungus-derived cellulase as a non-permeate and to obtain a sugar liquid as a permeate, wherein the cellulose-containing biomass is treated with one or more enzymes selected from the group consisting of pectinase, glucoamylase, and lipase at a stage previous to step (1) or in step (1).
