This process was followed by enzymatic hydrolysis ...
Abstract. The transformation of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels represents an interesting and sustainable alternative to fossil fuel for the near future.
Agitator bead mills are grinding machines for ultra-fine processing of solids in liquids. Their area of application covers the particle size range from 200 μm (max. 500 μm) down to the submicron (nanometer) range. With a comminution factor down to 1 : 10 000 (200 μm --> 20 nm), the application range is extensive and the variety of tasks extremely diverse.
Different mechanical treatment of biomass can be achieved using various types of milling techniques, viz. ball milling, wet disk milling, two-roll milling, hammer milling, and rod milling ...
Colloid mills and extruders are suitable only for comminuting wet materials with moisture contents over 15–25%, whereas hammer and knife mills are suitable to pretreat dry biomass with moisture contents up to (10–15%). 1,10 Extruders, in comparison with disc and ball mills, have advantages in terms of continuous processing, easy adjustment ...
2010; Avolio et al. 2012). However, the milling in small ball mills consumes a lot of energy (Agarwal et al. 2012). Conventional milling operations, such as hammer milling, knife milling and disk milling, typically break down the particle size, but do not alter the CI of cellulose. Only high-energy milling is able to reduce the cellulose CI
Here, a sustainable esterification strategy of cellulose was developed to efficiently synthesize cellulose oleate (COE) by ball milling to endow cellulose with thermoplasticity. In this strategy, a low dosage of oleic acid (6 mol per anhydroglucose) and no solvent were used to achieve the goal during the ball-milling process. According to ...

In this study, the oxidized cellulose nanofibrils from pineapple peel (PP-TOCNF) were prepared by TEMPO-mediated oxidation followed by ball milling. The influence of oxidation degree on the structure and properties of PP-TOCNF were investigated, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, atomic …
Cellulose extraction for the CNF production by ball milling through waste corncobs was done by using single step mechanochemical esterification reported by Kang et al. [77]. Pandey et al. [78] obtained CNF using newspaper waste as the cellulosic material sources due to significance of environmental and economic reasons.
Commonly used mills include attrition mills, ball mills, centrifugal mills, colloid mills, hammer mills, extruders, knife mills, pin mills and vibratory mills (Cheng and Timilsina 2011). Fig. 1 Lignocellulose composition: cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin
