Indonesia has an intensive agro-industrial sector which evolves large volumes of residues
each year. Currently, these residues are under-utilized and have a deleterious impact on the …

Hydrogenation of xylose to xylitol is commercially attractive. The use of water as well as
aqueous isopropanol as solvent using a novel robust catalyst was targeted in this work. This …

The massive potential of pineapple fruit production can produce a sizable amount of waste,
around 75%(w/w) of pineapple weight, contributing to global environmental problems. For …

The abundance of corn production in Indonesia offers the potential for its application as the
raw material for biorefinery process. The hemicellulose content in corn cobs can be …

The present study examines the impact of nitrogen sources (yeast extract, ammonium sulfate
peptone, ammonium nitrate, urea, and sodium nitrate), salt solution (0.5 g/L MgSO4, 0.5 g/L …

Hydrolysis and fermentation processes are key stages in xylitol production from
lignocellulosic materials. In this study, pineapple cores, one of the wastes from the canned …

Oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) is the largest biomass waste from the palm oil industry.
The OPEFB has a lignocellulose content of 34.77% cellulose, 22.55% hemicellulose, and …

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) are industrial wastes generated from the processing
of palm oil. OPEFB has the potential to be feedstock for bioethanol production due to its high …

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) are the waste of the palm oil processing and a
lignocellulosic biomass that can be used as raw material for xylitol production. In this …

Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFBs) are highly abundant in Indonesia and have been
highlighted as a potential feedstock for bioethanol and xylitol production. However, the …
