Fabrication of asymmetric nanofiltration flatsheet membrane for the separation of acetic acid from xylose and glucose

Malaysia palm oil based industries generate a huge amount of lignocellulose biomass wastes. These wastes can be utilized to produce chemicals and fuel. Lignocellulose biomass consists of hemicelluloses, cellulose and lignin. Cellulose and hemicelluloses portion need to be hydrolysed to release ferme...
