PROCESS FOR THE CONVERSION OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC SOLUTIONS CONTAINING A HIGH PROPORTION OF DRY MATERIAL
First Claim
1. A process for the conversion of aqueous solutions of lignocellulosic solids comprising a solids content of between 1 and 20% of dry material, said process comprising a step a) for compression of said solution so as to separate the liquid phase present in and between the solids from the compressed solid phase and a step b) for extraction of at least the liquid phase, said liquid phase then being homogenised by heat and/or chemical treatments and re-mixed with the solid phase.

Abstract
The invention describes a process for the conversion of aqueous solutions of lignocellulosic solids comprising a solids content of between 1 and 20% of dry material, said process comprising a step a) for compression of said solution so as to separate the liquid phase present in and between the solids from the compressed solid phase and a step b) for extraction of at least the liquid phase, said liquid phase then being homogenised by heat and/or chemical treatments and reinjected on to the compressed solid phase.
