Effect of chemical steeping on yields of glucose and xylose from dilute acid hydrolysis of extract from oil palm trunk
The effectiveness of chemical steeping was examined as a novel pretreatment prior to hydrolysis to influence the extractable yield of glucose and xylose from oil palm trunk (OPT). The chemical steeping parameters were 0.2% sodium metabisulphite (w/v), 0.5% lactic acid (v/v), 26 ± 2 °C, and 1 h, foll...
