Samir,
Would you please expand the question as I am not sure what the purpose of the question... what is the problem you are looking to address?

I studied The effect of different heavy metals on cellulose decomposition and i used this technique, it is simple and i had a beautiful results.
Do you want to release sugars from cellulose or the ultimate goal is to obtain hydrocarbon chain?
The Managed Ecosystem Fermentation process we have developed converts the cellulose into long chain fatty acids (C16, C18, C20, C22, & C24). These are produced in large quantities with multiple industrial applications. The applications range from use as feedstock for bio-disel to incorporation into lubricants, sealants, adhesives, cosmetics and/or pharmaceuticals. The by product is protein that can be used as high protein animal feed, or as adhesives, or coating for paper/cardboard.
The technique that i mentioned above is depending on the clear zone that made by microorganisms, and if you have a large clear zone, this means, the cellulose decomposition process is good
