Integrated Production of Xylitol, Ethanol, and Enzymes from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch through Bioprocessing as an Application of the Biorefinery Concept
Oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB), an abundant source of lignocellulosic biomass waste, is rich in hemicellulose and is converted into xylose for xylitol production. The remaining cellulose-rich residue can be efficiently hydrolyzed into glucose, which serves as a substrate for bioethanol and enzym...
