As polysaccharides in lignocellulosic materials are encrusted with aromatic lignin molecules and have high crystallinity, these require pretreatment to improve their digestability by cellulolytic enzymes. Though a number of pretreatment methods have been proposed, the steam explosion process is evaluated as a promising method. This study was performed to investigate the effect of delignification treatment by alkali, methanol and the others on the enzymatic hydrolysis. Delignification treatment resulted in great increase rate in enzymatic hydrolysis. Concerning to the effect of delignication reagents on the enzymatic hydrolysis, methanol treatment was more effective than alkali in the case of oak wood. In pine wood, the delignification did not showed any significant enhancement of hydrolysis rate. Complete delignification by Alkali-Oxygen. Alkali treatment showed high saccharification rate of 99.5%.

Dissolving part of xylan and lignin in lignocellulosic biomass by base can be used as pretreatment technique. Cork oak was pretreated with sodium hydroxide solution and the pretreatment effects were evaluated with two critical factors - NaOH concentration and pretreatment temperature. Some of xylan and lignin were removed by base pretreatment. At $90^{\circ}C$ and 13% NaOH pretreatment, 22.0% of lignin and 78.8% of xylan removed by base treatment. Enzymatic hydrolysis of cork oak which was pretreated at higher temperature or concentration was further improved. After pretreatment of cork oak with 13% NaOH at $90^{\circ}C$, the conversion rate of cellulose to fermentable sugars were reached up to 91.3%. At ethanol fermentation with enzymatic hydrolysate from different pretreatment conditions, all enzymatic saccharification liquids were well fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Raw starch can be effectively saccharified in an enzyme reaction system containing sttrition-milling media. In order to develop an effcient attrition-coupled bioreactor(bioattritor), a rotating drum type bioattitor was construced, and its optimal operation conditions and power consumptions were evaluated. The optimal conditions for 3l bioattritor were 4 baffled, baffle size of 1:0.05 (the ratio of drum diameter to baffle), drum rotation speed of 100 rpm, and 1.33g of 3 mm glass bead/g of raw corn starch.

In an attempt to develop a novel process for ethanol production from starch, a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process using Zymomonas mobilis and amyloglucosidase (AMG) was studied in continuous modes. Compared with a conventional cylindrical column type of fermentor, the tapered column type of fermentor was found to be superior in terms of reactor performance for ethanol fermentation. The tapered columm fermentor packed with coimmobilized Z. mobilis and AMG alleviated the problems which were associated with CO2 evolution and provided a significantly better flow pattern for both liquid and gas phases in the fermentor without channelling. However, the fluidized bed type of tapered column fermentor using flocculent strain of Z. mobiles and immobilized AMG showed lower productivity (5.2g/1/h) than that of packed bed type of tapered column fermentor(9.2g/l/h).

볏짚을 이용하여 acetone-butanol을 생산하기 위해 전처리한 볏짚을 C. acetobutylicum KCTC 1037(ATCC 4259)과 Trichoderma viride로부터 얻은 섬유소 분해효소를 이용하여 동시당화 발효법 (SSF)으로 발효하였다. Ball-mill로 처리한 볏짚을 SSF로 발효한 결과 acetate와 butyrate안을 생산하였으나, alkali로 전처리한 기질은 230 mM 이상의 solvent를 생산하였다. 이와 같은 발효의 차이는 볏짚에는 alkali 처리로 분해되는 물질이 있으며, 이 물질이 solvent 생산을 저해하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 solvent 생산 저해물질은 물이나 유기용매에 불용성으로 lignin 유도체 혹은 잔류농약으로 추측된다.

알코올 발효의 증자공정중에서 많은 에너지가 소요되므로 이를 줄이기 위한 방안으로서 저온증자법으로 Vietnam 산 cassava를 원료로 저온증자의 가능성을 고온증자와 비교 검토하였다. 알코올 발효에 당화 및 액화효소는 저온 및 고온증자에서 동일한 량을 사용하였으며 저온증자의 발효 mash중 소비된 glucose의 알코올 전환수율은 0.468g alcohol/gr. glucose로서 고온증자보다 좋은 결과를 보였다. 그러나 발효 불순물인 fusel oil은 고온증자의 0.48％보다 저온증자에서 0.64％로 다소 많았으나 증류과정에서 에너지소비 증가는 없었다.

We investigated a potential for glucose production from cellulose material using two kinds of hyperthermophilic enzymes, endocellulase (EG) and beta-glucosidase (BGL). Two BGLs, from hyperthermophile Pyrococcus furiosus and mesophile Aspergillus aculeatus, were compared with P. horikoshii endocellulase (EGPh) for complete hydrolysis of cellulose. The combination reactions by each BGL enzyme and EGPh could produce only glucose without the other oligosaccharides from phosphoric acid swollen Avicel (PSA). The combination of both the hyperthermophilic cellulases, BGLPf and EGPh, will be adaptable to a high efficiency system to produce glucose at high temperature.

Production of acetic acid from cellulosic biomass by Simultaneous Saccharification and Extractive Fermentation (SSEF) was investigated. The homoacetate organism used in this study was a strain of Clostridium thermoaceticum, ATCC # 49707. A batch operation of Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation(SSF) using ${\alpha}$-cellulose at pH 5.5 and 55$^{\circ}C$ yielded 40% conversion of cellulose to acetic acid, while a fed-batch SSF operation produced a maximum acetic acid concentration of 25 g/L, with 50% overall yield. In-situ extractive fermentation to reduce the end-product inhibition on both bacteria and enzyme was carried out. in a batch SSEF using 200 g/L IRA-400 resin, acetic acid concentration reached to 23.9 g/L and acetic acid yield and productivity were observed to be 48% and 0.20 g/L-hr, respectively.

Various Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were transformed with a 2 ${\mu}$-based multicopy expression plasmid, pYIGP, carrying Kluyveromyces marxianus inulinase gene under the control of GAPDH promoter. Among then two strains, SEY2102 and 2805, showed high levels of cell growth and inulinase expression, and were selected to study their fermentation properties on inulin. Jerusalem artichoke inulin was more effective for cell growth (10∼11 g-dry wt./L at 48 hr) and inulinase expression (1.0 units/mL with SEY2102/pYIGP and 2.5 units/mL with 2805/pYIGP) than other inulin sources such as dahlia and chicory. It was also found that maximal ethanol production of 9 g/L was obtained from Jerusalem artichoke inulin at the early stationary phase (around 30 hr), indicating that recombinant S. cerevisiae cells secreting exoinulinase could be used for the simultaneous saccharification of inulin and ethanol fermentation.

Modeling and simulation for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process in bioconversion of paper mill sludge to lactic acid was carried out. The SSF process combined the enzymatic hydrolysis of paper mill sludge into glucose and the fermentation of glucose into lactic acid in one reactor. A mathematical modeling for cellulose hydrolysis was developed, based on the proposed mechanism of cellulase adsorption deactivation. Another model for simple lactic acid fermentation was also made. A whole mathematical model for SSF was developed by combining the above two models for cellulose hydrolysis and lactic acid fermentation. The characteristics of the SSF process were investigated using the mathematical model.
