One avenue for overcoming the economic challenges associated with the production of ethanol from renewable resources is to reduce the cost of the biomass feedstock. The balance between storage costs and benefits depend on the storage method and composition changes of individual stover fractions. Corn stover from bales stored inside and outside of a barn was separated into an interior and exterior layer after approximately 10 months of storage. The cobs, stalks, and leaves and husks were separated, dried, and ground through a 2 rum screen. Stover, sodium acetate (buffer), cellulase, and deionized water were added to 125 ml flasks. The mixture was held at 50 degreesC in an incubator and samples taken for glucose determination. The average glucose concentration after 60 h of hydrolysis from cobs, leaves and husks, and stalks was 10.5, 9.6, and 3.1 g/l, respectively. Cobs, leaves, and husks produced over 300% more glucose than stalks. Storage outside of the barn decreased the glucose production from individual stover components between 4% and 8%. The effect of stover fraction type on glucose production was significant, while the storage treatment effect was not significant. Fractionation of corn stover may be a method to increase the value of corn stover as a feedstock for glucose production. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
