Bioethanol Production from Shorea Robusta Seeds by Using Micro Wave Pretreatment
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Bioethanol Is The Most Potent And Best Alternative To Traditional Fuels. Production Of Ethanol Form Lignocellulosic Biomass Is At Rising Demand. Shorea Robusta Seeds Have Rich Carbohydrate Content That Makes Them Suitable For The Production Of Bioethanol. In This Study, Shorea Robusta Seeds Were Pretreated Using Microwave Before They Were Subjected To Separate Hydrolysis And Fermentation (Shf). Microwave Power Of 80 W For 5min Was Found Best For The Treatment. Hydrolysis Was Done By Aspergillus Niger And Fermentation By Klebsiella Pneumoniae Strain Ut3 (Isolated Bacterial Sp. From Shorea Robusta Seeds). The Optimum Ph And Temperature For The Fermentation Was 6 And 37°C. The Results Show That Microwave Treatment Ruptures The Crystalline Structure And Increases The Surface Area For Further Hydrolysis And Fermentation Process. Shorea Robusta Seeds Can Be Efficiently Utilized For The Production Process.
