Hemicelluloses for fuel ethanol: A review. (2010, methodology): “In this type of treatment the direct action of water dissolved organic solvents (such as ethanol, methanol, or acetone), usually in combination with an acid, acts together to solubilise the lignin and hydrolyse the hemicellulose fraction (Kin, 1990; Pan et al., 2005; Vázquez et al., 1992; Zhao et al”
