Abstract
A process for converting lignocellulosic biomass to glucose or ethanol includes subjecting the lignocellulosic biomass to a SOpretreatment within the temperature range 110° C.-150° C. Good glucose yields have been achieved when the SOpretreatment is conducted for more than 90 minutes and when the total amount of SOavailable is greater than 20 wt % based on dry weight of lignocellulosic biomass.
