## Abstract A high pressure (200βbar) CO~2~βH~2~O process was developed for pretreating lignocellulosic biomass at highβsolid contents, while minimizing chemical inputs. Hardwood was pretreated at 20 and 40 (wt.%) solids. Switchgrass, corn stover, big bluestem, and mixed perennial grasses (a coβcul

β¦ Synopsis
Lignocellulosic biomass materials were pretreated with dilute sulfuric acid, followed by analysis of partially and extensively washed pretreated solids. It is demonstrated that it is of crucial importance to perform extensive washing for accurate carbohydrate analyses to be obtained. Klason lignin, acid-soluble lignin, and ash analyses were not significantly affected by the extent of washing.
