Exploring golden shower foliage fermentable sugars untapped potential and promise for sustainable bioethanol development

This study investigates the potential of golden shower foliage (GSF) fermentable sugars for sustainable bioethanol production. Utilizing chemical and biological pretreatments involving agents such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), calcium oxide (CaO), Trichoderma reesei. The research analyzed various aspects including reducing sugar coefficient, total sugar, degree polymerization (DP), derived energy. Results underscored efficacy a 3% NaOH solution over 72 hours in maximizing energy concentration, facilitating efficient lignocellulosic biomass conversion into sugar. However, economic viability large-scale deployment poses challenge, directing attention to cost-benefit incorporating CaO due its affordability compared without notably diminishing output efficiency. role T. reesei, notable entity decomposition staple biofuel production, was also highlighted. further delved complexity carbohydrate structures significant polymerization, influencing classification carbohydrates based on their monomer count. Therefore, this approach is cost competitiveness pretreatment hydrolysis phase hurdle.
