Among many countries, the straw byproducts from cultivation fields of grains like wheat, rice, corn, and soybean can be considered as an important lignocellulosic resources consists of lignin, hemicellulose, and cellulose [14].
The reason: Brazil's sugarcane mills produce huge quantities of cheap cellulose in the form of sugarcane straw, a byproduct.
Ethanol from lower-cost biomass for example, from cellulosic sources such as rice straw (a byproduct of harvesting rice) or switchgrass would make far more economic sense but large volumes of ethanol from such substrates will not be commercially viable for many years.
This so-called wheat straw is the byproduct of wheat harvesting and isn't exactly useful.
Thus, it is feasible to use A. terreus-fermented rice straw (an industrial byproduct) as feed additive in ruminants.
Mr. Toffolo was able to determine whether the floors were made of wild grasses used as bedding, or agricultural byproducts like straw, or ash from wood used as fuel.
Rice husk, the main byproduct from rice milling, accounts for roughly 22% of paddy weight, while rice straw to paddy ratio ranges from 1.0 to 4.3.
Agro-industrial byproducts, especially rice straw, are potential resources.
Cyathus stercoreus has been investigated for its ability to break down lignin and cellulose in agricultural byproducts, like wheat straw or grasses.
Recently, various agricultural byproducts and wastes, including straw, olive seed, and nut shell, have been applied to the research of fast pyrolysis [8].
Currently favored raw materials for this purpose include –among others – wood residues, "energy crops" such as switch grass or Miscanthus, and agricultural byproducts such as wheat straw [ 1].
