Abstract
Cellulose constitutes the most abundant, renewable polymer resource. It has been estimated [1] that the yearly photosynthesis of biomass is 170 billion tons, 40 % of which consists of polysaccharides; mainly cellulose and starch. However, only about 3 % of the available polysaccharides are utilized yearly.
