Utilization of Agro-Industrial Residues and Municipal Waste of Plant Origin for Cellulosic Ethanol Production

Characterisation of Agricultural and Agro-Industrial Residues as Raw Materials for Ethanol Production

Sugarcane bagasse, rice hulls, peanut shells, and cassava stalks are abundant lignocellulosic residues that could be considered as raw materials for ethanol production in tropical countries. The knowledge on the composition of lignocellulosic materials is important for their effective utilisation. In this work, a systematic comparison of the chemical composition of sugarcane bagasse, peanut she...

Challenges of Cellulosic Ethanol Production from Xylose-extracted Corncob Residues

Xylose-extracted corncob residue (X-ER), a byproduct from the xylose production industry, is a potential cellulose-rich energy resource. However, attempts to achieve large-scale production of cellulosic ethanol using X-ER have been unsatisfactory due to a lack of understanding of the substrate. This study presents the first characterization of the X-ER to evaluate its potential utilization in t...

Partial Optimization of Endo-1, 4-Β-Xylanase Production by Aureobasidium pullulansUsing Agro-Industrial Residues

  Objective(s): Although bacteria and molds are the pioneering microorganisms for production of many enzymes, yet yeasts provide safe and reliable sources of enzymes with applications in food and feed.   Materials and Methods: Single xylanase producer yeast was isolated from plant residues based on formation of transparent halo zones on xylan agar plates. The isolate showed much ...
