摘      要：The sugars potential ofPaulownia tomentosa is estimated by dilute acid pretreatment and cellulase hydrolysis. The kinetics of dilute （1%） sulfuric acid hydrolysis is studied at temperatures of 100 ℃, 120 ℃ and 130 ℃, while the kinetics of the subsequent enzyme hydrolysis is examined at a temperature of 50 ℃ and reaction time varied from 60 to 300 min using cellulase complex NS 50013 and β-glucosidase N S 50010. The reducing sugars formation is modeled as a pseudo-homogeneous first order reaction in view of the kinetics of dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis. The results obtained indicate that the reaction proceeds in an energetically homogeneous system （E = const） providing identical accessibility of the reagent to the hydrolyzing sites （A = const）. The enzyme hydrolysis kinetics follows heterogeneous catalytic mechanism. The process is described by an exponential kinetic equation, which is well recognised in case of processes on uniformly inhomogeneous surfaces. The current rate decreases significantly probably because of exhaustion of the available active sites on the surface and steric hindrances due to the presence of lignin. This investigation provides information of importance for the fermentation step of the bio-ethanol production process.
