Opportunities from second-generation biofuel technologies for upgrading lignocellulosic biomass for livestock feed

Lignocellulosic biomass comprises the most abundant biopolymers on earth, cellulose, hemicelluloses, pectin and lignin. The total annual production of lignocellulosic biomass is estimated at about 10–50 billion metric tonnes of which approximately 4 billion tonnes consist of annual crop residues, th...
