Abstract
The effect of grinding and screening on the geometry and chemical char acteristics of wheat straw is examined. These pre-treatments cause a d ifferentiation in the geometry of the straw particles, in the fibrous/ non-fibrous matter ratio, as well as in the lignin and ash content of the product. After a mild acid prehydrolysis, the results remain almo st unchanged.
