Popis: Nanocellulose has various outstanding properties and great potential for replacing petrochemical products. The utilization of lignocellulose to produce nanocellulose is of great significance to the sustainable development of the economy and society. However, the direct extraction of nanocellulose from lignocellulose by chemical method is challenged by toxic chemicals utilization, energy and time consumption, and waste water generation. Therefore, this paper addressed the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) by the biological method. Moreover, this article highlights the recent advances in potentials and challenges of lignocellulosic biomass for BNC production through the bioconversion process, including biomass pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, glucose and xylose fermentation, GA accumulation, and inhibitor tolerant. The development in metabolic and evolutionary engineering to enhance the production capacity of BNC-producing strain is also discussed. It is expected to provide guidance on the effective bioproduction of nanocellulose from lignocellulosic biomass.
