Bioenergy crops have potential for being a sustainable and renewable feedstock for biofuels and various value- added bioproducts. The study utilizes recently developed transgenic sugarcane (‘oilcane’) bagasse for chemical- free coproduction of high-value bioproducts, i.e., furfurals, HMF, acetic acid, cellulosic sugars, and vegetative lipids. Hydrothermal pretreatment was optimized at 210°C for 5 min to coproduce 6.91%, 2.67%, 5.07%, 2.42% and 37.82% (w/w) furfurals, HMF, acetic acid, vegetative lipids, and cellulosic sugars, respectively from lignocellulosic biomass. Additionally, nanofiltration system in-series was successfully established to recover sugars, furfurals, HMF, and acetic acid from the pretreatment liquor. 1st nanofiltration with Duracid NF mem- brane rejected ~99% sugars. Concentrated sugars with significantly reduced inhibitory products were obtained in retentate for fermentation. 2nd nanofiltration with NF90 membrane used permeate of 1st nanofiltration as feed and rejected ~ 86% furfurals. Furthermore, the work demonstrates the feasibility of coproducing and recovering multiple biochemicals from lignocellulosic biomass.
