Discussion

Analysis shows hydrolysis increased cellulose and hemicellulose yields in sugarcane bagasse, indicating potential bioethanol applications.

Weight loss of 46.22% was achieved with 0.5% sodium hydroxide at 100ºC for 5 hours, maximizing glucose extraction.
The hydrolysate obtained contained 69.18% lignin, and sugars like glucose (1.24%) and xylose (12.70%).
Characterization by FT-IR demonstrated significant degradation of lignin and cellulose in the sugarcane bagasse samples.
These findings highlight the potential for converting bagasse into bioethanol and bioplastic, enhancing biomass valorization.

A 2019 study studied this question.
