Production of glucose from banana trunk: optimization studies
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2013-06)
Banana trunk (BT) is one example of non-wood fibers and usually discarded as an
agricultural waste from banana plantation in Malaysia. It consists of cellulose (53.45
%), hemicelluloses (28.56 %) and lignin (15.42 %). ...
Development of protein extraction from agricultural waste as potential growth stimulator
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2013-06)
Soybean waste obtained during processing of soy products was found to be rich in
protein and adequate in supporting the growth of microorganisms such as fungus
Rhizopus oligosporus. The objective of this study was to ...
Hydrogen production from agriculture waste by dark fermentation
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2011-05)
Abundant biomass from various industries could be a source for biohydrogen
production where combination of waste treatment and energy production would be an
advantage. Potential biomass that could be the substrates for ...
Physical parameter optimization of cellulase production by Aspergillus niger on solid state fermentation of sugarcane bagasse
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2011-05)
The optimization of cellulase enzyme production was studied in solid state
fermentation (SSF) on sugarcane bagasse by Aspergillus niger. Three parameters which
are moisture content, fermentation period and inoculums size ...
Bioconversion of lignocelluloses from paddy straw to Vanillic Acid using Aspergillus niger
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2010-05)
Lignocellulosic materials are important natural renewable resources. This is because it is low in cost, renewable and it requires low processing energies. Agricultural residues, such as paddy straw are sources for ...
Physical parameter optimization of cellulase by Aspergillus niger on solid-state fermentation of sawdust
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2011-05)
Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose from lignocellulosic waste which is sawdust finds potential application in commercial production of cellulase enzyme. By using Design Expert 7.1.5, the effect of three physical parameters ...
Chemical modified coconut husk for potassium removal from aqueous solution : optimization by response surface methodology (RSM)
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2016-06)
The ecosystem rating today shows the higher rated regarding the pollution on the heavy
metal. The most popular adsorbent for the heavy metal is activated carbon. However,
the high market demand on the activated carbon ...
