Effect of sawdust species and particle size on xylose production

Xylose is a pentose sugar and commonly hydrolyzed from lignocellulosic material.This study was carried out to identify the species and particle size on xylose production was investigated.Three types of hardwood species (Meranti, Keruing and Resak) and five differences particle size of sawdust (800,6...
