Summary

In the dilute acid hydrolysis of lignocellulose to produce fermentable sugars, conditions severe enough to hydrolyze crystalline cellulose are also severe enough to degrade the product sugars. Counter-current flow of liquids and solids minimizes sugar degradation and product dilution by removing the sugars from the reaction zone before substantial degradation can occur. The progressing batch reactor uses several percolation reactors in series to simulate counter-current flows while retaining the simplicity of the percolation reactor. 25 refs., 7 figs.
