Response surface optimization of ethanol production from banana peels by organic acid hydrolysis and fermentation
The production of ethanol from banana peels was optimized by response surface methodology in a two-step process. The steps were vinegar hydrolysis of banana peels using microwave heating, and fermentation of the peel hydrolysate by commercial baker’s yeast. The sugar (glucose) content in the hydro...
