Data and code belonging to "Effect of acetic acid release and pH on lignocellulosic biomass conversion by liquid hot water pretreatment "

This dataset is an integral part of the study "Effect of acetic acid release and pH on lignocellulosic biomass conversion by liquid hot water pretreatment ", for which a manuscript is ready for submission for publication. This study used partly already published experimental data for a model-based description of the system of study, and partly generated new experimental data. The following files contain details of the models and experiments such as described in the manuscript: Referring to the paper to which these data and code belong: 1. Excel file "Figures_2_3_4.xlsx" generates Figures 2, 3 and 4. 2. Matlab file "Temperature_fitting_figure_1.m" generates Figure 1. 3. Matlab file "Final_pH_from_C0_KB.m” is used to generate Figure 2. 4. Matlab file “Kinetic_parameter_regression_autocatalytic.m” is used to generate Figure 3. 5. Matlab file “Kinetic_parameter_regression_not_ autocatalytic.m” is used to generate Figure 3. 6. Matlab file “Progress_curve_180_oC_typical exp.m” is used to generate Figure 4. 7. Excel file “Experimental_data_sorted” is called by items 3, 4 and 5. 8. Excel file “Experimental_data_180oC_1exp” is called by item 6. 9. Excel file “Experimental data with HAc initially added” contains source data for Tables 2 and 3, and Figure 6. 10. Text file “Supplementary Materials text file.pdf” contains minor calculations mentioned in Section 2 of the paper.
