Hot Water Extraction of Non-Food Biomass
ABS's specialized process reduces lignocellulosic biomass bulk density while leaving the cellulose (structural) portion of the wood intact.
Hemicellulose and other valuable chemicals are separated from lignocellulosic biomass during hot water extraction. These recovered byproducts are converted to direct substitutes for energy and products currently derived from coal, petroleum, and natural gas.
