Preface
The fossil fuel combustion causes air pollution and is one of the primary sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Bioethanol is the most promising renewable and carbon neutral alternative liquid fuel, and then consumption of bioethanol has been rapidly increasing since the Kyoto Protocol was established in February 2005. However, development of bioethanol production from starch-based feedstock, mainly from corn, wheat, and cassava, is limited by food security problem. Lignocellulosic biomass is an inexpensive, abundant, and carbon-neutral renewable bioresource for the production of biofuel and bio-based products. The development of a renewable, biomass-based, fuels and chemicals “biorefinery” process will be crucial if we are to transition to a more environmentally friendly economy. The sugar platform – breaking lignocellulosic biomass into fermentable sugar by cellulolytic enzymes – is the prerequisite for the production of biofuels or biochemical. Except biofuel production, cellulolytic enzymes were used in
