Enzymatic Conversion of Cellulose to Glucose: Present State of the Art and Potential

  • Chapter
Enzyme Engineering

Abstract

The production of glucose from cellulosic materials seems to have a very promising future. Food, chemical, and microbiological industries need an inexpensive source of glucose; and there exists a continually renewable supply of cellulose in the world. Cellulose processing also is closely connected with the utilization of domestic, industrial, and agricultural wastes, in which cellulose containing materials constitute a considerable proportion.
