Abstract: India is amongst the largest banana (Musa acuminata) producing countries and thus banana pseudo stem is commonly available agricultural waste to be used as lignocellulosic substrate. Present study focuses on exploitation of banana pseudo stem as a source for bioethanol production from the sugars released due to different chemical and biological pretreatments. Two fungal strains Aspergillus ellipticus and Aspergillus fumigatus reported to be producing cellulolytic enzymes on sugarcane bagasse were used under co… Show more

“…The ethanol yield obtain from this study is higher than the result (7.5 g/L) obtained from the fermentation of sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate using Pichia stipitis DSM 3651 as reported by Canilha et al [51] and 17.1 g/L as reported by Ingale et al [52] from banana pseudo stem. However, the yield is lower than the reported [53] ethanol maximum yield of 58.6 g/L from soybean molasses by Saccharomyces cerevisiae.…”

“…Use of banana stem as a substrate for bioethanol production is a good alternate in India because of huge availability of banana pseudo stem as a waste. Ingale et al (2014) produced bioethanol by using banana pseudo stem as a substrate with pre-treatment of Aspergillus ellipticus and Aspergillus fumigatus. Maiti et al (2016) used agro-industrial waste for the production of butanol by using Clostridium beijerinckii.…”
