Abstract

Biofuel potential of a widely grown perennial grass, Pennisetum polystachion, was analyzed using triethylammonium hydrogen sulfate ([TEA][HSO4]) pretreatment. The optimum pretreatment condition was selected based on the delignification efficiency. 80% [TEA][HSO4] at 140 °C for 45 min at 10% sample load, yielding high delignification rate (65.8%) was selected as the optimum pretreatment condition. Recycling of [TEA][HSO4] showed up to 90% IL recovery and significant delignification rates. Glucan yield in the biomass increased to 67.8%, whereas digestibility of biomass enhanced from 16.7% to 84.1%. Extensive deferuloylation (88%) and decoumarylation (86.4%) were observed in the sample following pretreatment. Diferulic acids were not detected in pretreated samples indicating their complete removal. HMF (0.1 mg/mL) and furfural (0.001 mg/mL) produced during pretreatment were very low compared to conventional methods. FTIR and XRD confirmed pronounced delignification and hemicellulose dissolution, and FESEM showed a marked difference in the surface morphology, including defibrillation and enhanced porosity. An ethanol yield of 275 mg/g biomass (84.7% of theoretical maxima) was achieved using Saccharomyces cerevisiae MTCC 36 after 15 h of fermentation. The results obtained from the current study can shed light on utilizing P. polystachion as a potential biofuel feedstock using a low-cost ionic liquid [TEA][HSO4].
