Abstract
Systems and methods for increasing fermentation efficiency of a lignocellulosic hydrolysate are disclosed. The system comprises a filter configurable to remove matter having a particle size of larger than about 25 to 100 microns from the liquid component, and at least one nanofilter configurable to remove acids from the liquid component. An apparatus is used to adjust the pH of the nanofiltered liquid component using a calcium hydroxide composition to a pH of about 5.5 to 6.0. The calcium hydroxide composition includes calcium hydroxide alone or in combination with either ammonium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide. The biomass comprises lignocellulosic material including at least one of corncob, corn plant husk, corn plant leaves, and corn plant stalks.
