Abstract: Focusing on the application of thermophilic lignocellulase in the production of cellulosic ethanol,the technical bottlenecks that limit the commercialization of cellulosic ethanol are summarized. Then the characteristics of thermophilic lignocellulase are briefly introduced,and the research advances on thermophilic lignocellulase in screening,modification,immobilization,heterologous expression,metabolic regulation and synergy are emphasized. Further,the role of thermophilic lignocellulase in the production of cellulosic ethanol is discussed. Finally,the problems while using thermophilic lignocellulase in the production of cellulosic ethanol are presented and its application is prospected.

Key words: cellulose ethanol, thermophilic lignocellulase, technical bottleneck, biofuel
