Abstract:
... Pretreatment processes play an important role in the conversion of lignocelluloses materials to reducing sugar for ethanol production. They help in breaking the structure of lignin and disrupt the crystalline structure of cellulose and hemicellulose, thus improving enzymatic accessibility during hydrolysis. In this study, various alternatives to pretreat oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), oil p ...
