Pretreatment of oil palm trunk in deep eutectic solvent and optimization of enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated oil palm trunk

Deep eutectic solvents (DES) were utilised as pretreatment media on oil palm trunk (OPT) fibre in order to change the morphology of the highly crystalline cellulose prior to enzymatic hydrolysis. Among all the DESs tested, ethylammonium chloride: ethylene glycol (EAC:EG) was found to be the most eff...
