Fumaric acid production from fermented oil palm empty fruit bunches using fungal isolate K20: a comparison between free and immobilized cells

This study investigated the potential of using steam-exploded oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) as a renewable feedstock for producing fumaric acid (FA), a food additive widely used for flavor and preservation, through a separate hydrolysis and fermentation process using the fungal isolate K20. The...
