To boost saccharification and biohydrogen production efficiency from corn straw, Lewis acid enhanced deep eutectic solvent (DES) pretreatment using choline chloride/glycerol was developed. A notable enhancement of the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency from 26.3 % to 87.0 % was acquired when corn straw was pretreated with aqueous DES at 100 °C for 5 h using 2.0 wt% AlCl₃. A maximum biohydrogen yield of 114.8 mL/g total solids (TS) was achieved in the sequential dark fermentation stage, which was 2.1 times higher than that of the raw feedstock (37.1 mL/g TS). The enhanced efficient conversion was ascribed to the effective removal of lignin and hemicellulose, which led to the bio-accessibility of the straw. This work provides new sights for the rational design of efficient AlCl₃-aided aqueous DES system toward biohydrogen production from lignocellulosic biomass.
