Steam explosion involves the use of high-temperature steam to disrupt the lignocellulosic structure, followed by a rapid decompression that explodes the biomass, increasing its surface area and porosity. This process facilitates the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose and hemicellulose into fermentable sugars.
This pretreatment method is environmentally advantageous as it reduces the use of chemicals, minimizes waste generation, and lowers the energy consumption compared to mechanical pretreatments. It also contributes to the circular economy by converting waste biomass into valuable resources.
