Judul | Pemanfaatan Limbah Tanaman Pisang Untuk Memproduksi Gula Melalui Proses sakarifikasi |
Abstrak | Banana is a major cash crop of the tropical region generating vast agriculture waste after harvest. The agrowaste including dried leaves and pseudostem after harvest was used as substrate for the release of sugars. Saccharification of banana agrowaste by cellulases of Trichoderma lignorum was investigated. The steam treated agro-waste yielded 1,34 mg/ml of reducing sugars after 24 hours fermented. The size of substrate affected saccharification where the smaller size (< 120 micron) yield more sugars. Maximum sugars were released at pH 6,0 whereas 40 0C was the optimum temperature. Thus, under these conditions the agrowaste left behind for natural degradation can be utilized affectively to yield fermentable sugars which can be coverted into other substances like alcohol. |
