METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING USEFUL MATERIAL FROM BIOMASS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a useful material from biomass capable of using the biomass ranging from high to low added value savely and obtaining an object conveniently and by saving energy at an energy-saving cost. SOLUTION: The method for manufacturing the useful material from the biomass includes a distillation process that extracts extractables from wood quality-biomass by hot water distillation or steam distillation using a mixture of water and acid as a solvent and a fermentation process that ferments the solvent liquid (solvent and effluent) used in the distillation process to manufacture ethanol.
