The 'sac' like structure in ruminants where cellulose is digested is known as caecum.

EXPLANATION:

The caecum is located between the 'small intestine' and 'large intestine'.  Cellulose is a carbohydrate which can be digested by 'ruminants' and not by human beings.

Cellulose is an important nutrient for ruminants as they are mainly herbivores. The caecum stores bacteria helps in digesting and the cellulose is mainly difficult to digest as it cannot be easily broken down.
