In this study, brewer's spent grain (BSG) was subjected to a range pretreatments to study the effect on reducing sugar yield. Glucose and xylose were found to be the predominant sugars in BSG. Brewers spent grain was high in cellulose (19.21g/100g of BSG) and lignin content (30.84g/100g of BSG). Microwave assisted alkali (MAA) pretreatment was found to be the most effective pretreatment for BSG, where the pretreatment was conducted at 400W for 60s. A maximum reducing yield was observed with high biomass loading (1g/10ml), cellulase (158.76μl/10ml), hemicellulase (153.3μl/10ml), pH (5.4) and an incubation time (120h). Upon enzymatic hydrolysis, MAA pretreated BSG yielded 228.25mg of reducing sugar/g of BSG which was 2.86-fold higher compared to native BSG (79.67mg/g of BSG); simultaneously BSG was de-lignified significantly. The changes in functional groups, crystallinity and thermal behaviour was studies by means of FTIR, XRD and DSC, respectively.
在这项研究中,对啤酒糟进行了一系列预处理,以研究其对还原糖产量的影响。结果发现,啤酒糟中的主要糖分为葡萄糖和木糖。啤酒糟中的纤维素含量(每 100g 啤酒糟中 19.21g)和木质素含量(每 100g 啤酒糟中 30.84g)都很高。研究发现,微波辅助碱(MAA)预处理是啤酒糟最有效的预处理方法,该方法在 400W 下处理 60s。在高生物质负荷(1g/10ml)、纤维素酶(158.76μl/10ml)、半纤维素酶(153.3μl/10ml)、pH(5.4)和孵育时间(120h)下,还原糖产量最高。经酶解后,MAA 预处理啤酒糟的还原糖产量为 228.25mg/g,比原生啤酒糟(79.67mg/g)高 2.86 倍;同时,啤酒糟的木质素脱除率也显著提高。通过傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、X 射线衍射(XRD)和差示扫描量热法(DSC)分别研究了功能基团、结晶度和热行为的变化。
