Lignocellulose is a promising raw material for the production of second-generation biofuels. In this study, the effects of acid-catalyzed liquid hot water (LHW) on pretreatment of corn stover (CS) for subsequent hydrolysis and conversion to ethanol were studied. The effects of reaction temperature, acid concentration, and residence time on glucose yield were evaluated using a response surface methodology. The optimal condition was 162.4 °C for 29.5 min with 0.45% v/v of sulfuric acid, leading to the maximum glucose yield of 91.05% fr
