Method for production of fermentable sugars from biomass

Abstract

A process for production of fermentable sugars from biomass using multi-enzyme multi-step system is provided herein. The process disclosed in the present invention provides high yielded sugars in less time period. The multi-enzyme system disclosed in the present invenHon converts celluloses, hemicelluloses and / or mixture thereof to fermentable sugar with higher efficiency and better economics than the process known in the prior art. Cellulose and hemicelluloses fractions derived from natural sources such as any lignocelluiosic biomass are saccharified in a shortened time with higher conversion rates of intermediates with modified enzymatic, compositions / groups of the Multienzyme system to enhance the rate thus providing an economical cellulose and hemicellulose saccharification process.
