Protein extraction from biomass in a bioethanol refinery--possible dietary applications: Use as animal feed and potential extension to human consumption.

摘要: The economy of the production lignocellulosic ethanol could be supported by simultaneous use different components biomass other than sugars. Among these, protein is present at high concentration in leaves and a candidate for possible utilizations. dietary applications, plant may used as animal feed possibly extended to human consumption, close similarity leaf concentrates already proposed past. This would especially beneficial developing countries. For this aim, quality plays crucial role: separating only noble fraction preserving its nutritional value, while simultaneously obtaining good yields limiting drawbacks on steps chain particularly challenging from technical viewpoint. In review, we compare extraction dry with more commonly studied situation which freshly harvested material used, special focus implications.
