The National Renewable Energy Centre of Spain (CENER) has selected AdvanceBio Systems’ SuPR2G bench scale pretreatment reactor to perform research and development work for the production of fermentable sugars from biomass feedstocks rich in lignocellulose.
The SuPR2G system hydrolyses a variety of agricultural feedstocks such as corn stover, sugarcane, bagasse, and switchgrass which will be useful for the pretreatment of the feedstock.

CENER will use the reactor to conduct a primary research on wheat straw and poplar chips.
AdvanceBio Systems principal Bipin Shroff said CENER and AdvanceBio Systems intend to collaborate in CENER’s R&D effort, not only in pretreatment, but also with other interrelated technologies.
"The equipment will be used for research, development and demonstration of technology related to the production of renewable energy in their newly developed Second Generation Biofuels Center located in Navarra (north Spain)," Shroff added.
AdvanceBio Systems principal Dale Monceaux said, "By partnering with CENER, we are contributing to the development of technology to produce cellulosic ethanol from biomass, to increase global production of renewable fuels and chemicals."
