Abstract
Cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin are the main consistent of the lignocellulosic biomass. Cellulose bonds strongly with hemicellulose and lignin Cellulose (C 6 H 10 O 5 ) appears as a closely packed dense structure when crystallized. It comprises thousands of glucose subunits linked by a linear -1,4-glycosidic linkage. The efficient usage of the cellulosic wastes products for the economical production of cellulose through the development of sustainable systems has recently gained interest Worldwide attention has turned to utilize different cellulolytic microorganisms for the bioconversion of cellulose into valuable products, such as alcohol and sugar. The procedure is carried out under high temperature and pressure.
