Abstract—Glucose production from pretreated larch by cellulose cellulose is not metabolised by lactic acid bacteria, enzymatic enzymatic hydrolysis with cellulase was investigated and harification of this haride has to be done before compared with no pretreatment, as a reference. The larch was fermentation. However, until recently, the cost of enzymes pretreated with microwave, sulfuric acid hydrolysis and dilute was one of the most significant drawbacks in this kind of sodium hydroxide solution hydrolysis respectively. The cellulose processes. In the period of 2001-2005, Novozymes and material was also submitted to a pretreatment with dilute sodium hydroxide solution hydrolysis followed by microwave national renewable energy laboratory (NREL) reduced 30 and with dilute sulfuric acid solution hydrolysis followed by times the cost of the enzymes needed to produce fuel ethanol microwave separately. The enzymatic hydrolysis experiments from
