## Abstract BACKGROUND: Ethanolβbased organosolv fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass is an effective pretreatment technology for enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis to produce sugars and lignin within a biorefinery. This study focuses on the catalytic effect of H~2~SO~4~, HCl, and MgCl~2~ on organo
