CA 2742681

Biomass is pretreated using an organic solvent solution under alkaline conditions in the presence of one or more alkylamine and optionally one or more additional nucleophile to fragment and extract lignin. Pretreated biomass is further hydrolyzed with a saccharification enzyme consortium. Fermentable sugars released by saccharification may be utilized for the production of target chemicals by fermentation.

Selon l'invention, une biomasse est prétraitée à l'aide d'une solution dans un solvant organique dans des conditions alcalines en présence d'une ou plusieurs alkylamines et facultativement d'un ou plusieurs nucléophiles supplémentaires pour fragmenter et extraire la lignine. Puis la biomasse prétraitée est hydrolysée par un consortium d'enzymes de saccharification. Les sucres fermentables libérés par saccharification peuvent être utilisés pour la production de produits chimiques cibles par fermentation.
