A study conceming the manufacture of bioethanol from oil palm empty fruit bunches has been carried out. Pretreatment process to reduce lignin content was done by steam explosion method. Hydrolysis and fermentation steps were performed using two methods namely Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) and Separately hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF). Hydrolysis and fermentation was do…
Bioethanol is a fuel which produced from a rich natural material containing cellulose, one of them is a empty palm fruit bund (EPFP). This research has made bioethanol from oil empty fruit bunch as main substance. Research corsisted of ozonolysis pretreatment, hydrilysis using NaOH and fermentation with yeast (S.cerevisiae). The result of ozonolysis pretreatment showed that celulose increased f…
