Abstract
To provide a lignocellulose decomposition system and a lignocellulose decomposition method that make it possible to decompose a lignocellulosic biomass with high efficiency.SOLUTION: The method comprises: at least one of a selection step for selecting a rumen juice derived from a ruminant animal by employing the abundance of a specific bacterium as a measure, a culturing step for controlling the culture of a rumen microorganism by employing the abundance of a specific bacterium as a measure, and a decomposition step for controlling the decomposition of lignocellulose by employing the abundance of a specific bacterium as a measure; and a methane fermentation step for performing methane fermentation using a lignocellulose decomposition product produced by the decomposition of the lignocellulosic biomass as a substrate and using at least one of the rumen juice selected in the selection step, a liquid culture produced in the culturing step and a reaction solution produced in the decomposition step.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
