Biorefining of whole cotton plant residues for bioethanol production with greenhouse gas emission reduction and social carbon benefits

This study evaluated the potential of cotton-processing residues, including leaves, bolls, linters, and stalks, as feedstocks for bioethanol production using ethanol-based organosolv pretreatment. Biomass samples were pretreated with 65 % (v/v) ethanol at 120, 150, and 180 °C for...
