In working to elucidate the chemistry of hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) for the catalytic upgrading of pyrolytic bio-oil to fuel-grade products, researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have discovered that water in the conversion process helps form an impurity which, in turn, slows down key chemical reactions.

The new pretreatment approach uses ammonia (NH 3 ) to reorganize the hydrogen bond network within cellulose, resulting in up to a 5-fold increase in saccharification rates. This, in turn, significantly reduces the tightness of the cellulose network and leaves it more vulnerable to conversion into sugar by fungi-derived cellulolytic enzymes.
