DDR switchgrass (SWG) solids composition compared to raw switchgrass. Switchgrass showed a high proportional fraction of glucan and xylan as the sodium hydroxide concentration was increased unlike poplar but similar to corn stover. However, not as much lignin was removed from switchgrass as was removed from corn stover, therefore, the increase of glucan and xylan was not as significant. X/Y/Z represents NaOH conc (g/kg)/residence time (min)/disc-refining gap (in.)
