To enhance the cellulose digestibility of energy grass hybrid Pennisetum (P. americanum x P. purpureum, HP) with low energy-consumption and high efficiency, a novel combinatorial pretreatment of oxygen-aqueous alkaline ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([Emim]Ac) media (OEA) was developed in this work. The combinatorial pretreatment was performed under the relatively low temperature (120 degrees C), short retention time (30 min), and 12 bar oxygen pressure. The combinatorial pretreatment of OEA was demonstrated effectively for pretreatment of hybrid Pennisetum, which evidenced by the removal of lignin, degradation of carbohydrate, and porosity property of the regenerated biomass. Subsequently, a higher glucose recovery (96.9%) at a low enzyme loading (20 FPU/g substrate) was obtained by the OEA pretreatment, and it was 9.1 times as much as the untreated samples. Overall, the novel OEA combinatorial pretreatment has the advantages of low thermal energy input and enzyme usage, and short retention time. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
