Sažetak
Corn stover was hydrolyzed using dilute sulfuric acid at concentrations of 2, 4, and 6% over reaction times up to 300 minutes at 80oC. The concentrations of sugars (xylose and glucose) and degradation product (furfural) were determined and the kinetic parameters of mathematical models for predicting them in the hydrolysates were obtained. According to the models, an optimal condition for hydrolysis was achieved which was 5% H2SO4 at 80°C for 240min and the liquor contained up to 13.21g/l xylose, 5.07g /l glucose and 0.80g/l furfural. The hydrolysates obtained from corn stover can be used to produce hydrogen and methane by anaerobic fermentation process. The models could be used successfully to predict the concentrations of xylose, glucose and furfural within 0-300min under experimental acid concentrations
