WHAT DOES LIGNOCELLULOSE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

lignocellulose

Lignocellulosic biomass

Lignocellulose refers to plant dry matter, so called lignocellulosic biomass. It is the most abundantly available raw material on the Earth for the production of bio-fuels, mainly bio-ethanol. It is composed of carbohydrate polymers, and an aromatic polymer. These carbohydrate polymers contain different sugar monomers and they are tightly bound to lignin. Lignocellulosic biomass can be broadly classified into virgin biomass, waste biomass and energy crops. Virgin biomass includes all naturally occurring terrestrial plants such as trees, bushes and grass. Waste biomass is produced as a low value byproduct of various industrial sectors such as agricultural, forestry. Energy crops are crops with high yield of lignocellulosic biomass produced to serve as a raw material for production of second generation biofuel examples include switch grass and Elephant grass.

Definition of lignocellulose in the English dictionary

The definition of lignocellulose in the dictionary is a compound of lignin and cellulose that occurs in the walls of xylem cells in woody tissue.
