摘要：
Embodiments of the present invention provide for efficient and economical production and recovery of ethanol or other volatile organic compounds. One embodiment comprises contacting a solid component of a biomass material with a solution adapted to facilitate saccharification. The solid component is generated by a method comprising: introducing a biomass material to a compartment of a solventless recovery system, wherein the biomass material contains one or more volatile organic compounds； contacting the biomass material with a superheated vapor stream in the compartment to vaporize at least a portion of an initial liquid content in the biomass material； separating a vapor component and a solid component from the heated biomass material； and retaining at least a portion of the gas component for use as part of the superheated vapor stream. In one embodiment , the solid component contacted with the solution is further subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis and/or fermentation.
