Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Starch-Containing Crops — Status and Possibilities in the Coming Years

  • Chapter
Biomass Utilization

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Science Institutes Series ((NSSA,volume 67))

Abstract

Production of biomass is the condition of all life on this planet. The basic components in biomass are first of all carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Carbohydrates have the very important task of being both the energy storage and, at the same time, perhaps the most important part of the plant structure.
