Development of Protocol for Biofuel Production from Cellulose
Author(s): Manjari singh*
Worldwide, there is an increasing need for ethanol production as a result of rapid industrialisation and population expansion. Due to their primary importance as food and feed, conventional crops like maize and sugar cane cannot produce enough biofuels to meet the world's demand. Ligno-cellulosic materials, including pseudo stem debris from bananas, have value and make desirable feedstock for the production of bioethanol. Utilising agricultural industrial waste has the advantages of being affordable, renewable, and plentiful. Bioethanol from banana pseudo stem waste has the potential to be a noteworthy technological advancement thanks to an efficient method. The real effort involves employing acid pre-treatment, hydrolysis, and fermentation by Aspergillus Niger to bio convert cellulose from banana pseudo stem waste, collected from an agro-industry, into ethanol. Pre-treating the B.. View More»
