16 b. mixing pre-hydrolysate with paper sludge Kraft Paper Mill Sludges as a Feedstock 4.1 to 5 million tons sludge per year in U.S. - Incineration (greenhouse gas emission, low energy efficiency) - Landfill (greenhouse gas emission, limited land availability) Low/ Negative Cost ( 0 to 50$ per ton disposal cost) High Carbohydrate and Low Lignin Content (Kraft pulping process removes most of lignin and hemicellulose) Easily Digested by Cellulase (No need for expensive pretreatment) 16

20 Conclusion Combining pre-hydrolysate with sludge can more than double ethanol production Hemicellulose pre-hydrolysate can be converted to ethanol through de-toxification, enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation processes. The fermentation of concentrated pre-hydrolysate can increase the ethanol concentration. The fermentation performance of the mixture of prehydrolysate with sludges has high efficiency and more practical. 20
