Abstract | The aim of this project is to develop and improve the disassembly of plant (cell wall) structures in wastes and co-products from the agri-food chain in order to provide renewable substrates for bioalcohol production. The project will focus initially on the exploitation of poorly-lignified cell wall-enriched residues from traceable sources. | |
