“…Furthermore, biomass characteristics from the ultimate analysis will specify raw materials efficacy as a fuel or other functions. The component compositions of the sample were almost the same as wood stem [16]. This composition refers the suitable efficacy of sample as fuel because of high carbon content and low sulfur content.…”

Nowadays, the global energy crisis has been encouraging the development of renewable energy. Biomass has emerged as one of the most attractive renewable energy sources in Indonesia. Compared with fossil fuels, biomass is available in abundant quantity, renewable, and non-toxic. Pyrolitic, a method to process biomass, was performed in a household cook stove (also known as a pyrolitic stove). The pyrolitic stove will be developed as an option for substituting traditional cook stove improve the thermal efficiency. In this study, the pyrolitic of twigs of Indonesian teak in the pyrolitic stove was investigated. The influence of bottom air apertures on the household pyrolitic stove performance was studied. It was found that the decreasing number of bottom air apertures resulted in a longer leg-phase of temperature change, higher char yield, lower ash yield, and energy recovery. However, the temperature change was only slightly affected by one-third open outer air apertures condition. According to the condition performed in this study, 60 bottom air apertures in the stove provided an optimum energy recovery for cooking.

“…The thermal process also produced a solid by-product, namely char, and ash. Char was composed of fixed carbon, while ash was composed of inorganic matter in biomass sample [16]. A sample of teak had a lower trend on char and ash composition than other biomass.…”

“…The biofuel derived from such raw material is called as the first generation of biofuel. However, the problems of food versus fuels led to introduce the second generation of biofuel [4]. The plant biomass-derived fuel seems to be one of the potential alternatives fuel to fossil fuels.…”

In this study, 18 species of lignocellulosic biomass from Northeast India have been explored to utilize as new feedstock for biofuel production. The biomass sample were examined and characterized proximately and taxonomically for their energy content. The possibility of this lignocellulosic biomass in biofuel production was addressed. A well-documented herbarium specimen based on the morphological features clearly indicating systematic taxon was maintained. The ecological survey and distribution of the plants were applied and found three families, namely poaceae, cyperaceae and typhaceae. Taxonomical ranks were assigned to the collected biomass. Energy content in the form of higher heating value was calculated. The calorific value (MJ/kg) ranged from 7.507 to 14.969 MJ/kg. Our findings show that moisture content was highest in biomass sample Cyrtococcum oxyphyllum (12.55 ± 0.21) and lowest in Chrysopogon aciculatus (7.51 ± 0.25). Volatile matter content of biomass varies in the interval of 77.88 ± 0.20%-86.51 ± 0.27%. Ash content was very less (below 5%) for the biomass such as Cymbopogon longifolium (4.51 ± 0.26%), Saccharum sponteneum (4.58 ± 0.25%) and Cyrtococcum oxyphyllum (4.70 ± 0.10%). Dichanthium assimile (Steud.) Deshp. shows the highest cellulose (40.57%) composition than other species. Minimum cellulose percentage was found in biomass Setaria glauca (24.9%). In overall, this lignocellulosic biomass can be utilized to produce biofuel as they contained a high percentage of cellulose and hemicellulose with less lignin.

ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION OF HEMICELLULOSIC HYDROLYZATE FROM SUNFLOWER CAKE BYGalactomyces geotrichum UFVJM-R10 AND Candida akabanensis UFVJM-R131. The use of the hemicellulosic fraction of plants for the production of second generation bioethanol depends on microorganisms capable to ferment pentoses. Two yeast strains habile to xylose fermenting in synthetic medium, Candida akabanensis UFVJM-R131 and Galactomyces geotrichum UFVJM-R10, not yet registered in the literature for the production of bioethanol, were evaluated here in the alcoholic fermentation of the hemicellulosic hydrolyzate from sunflower cake. The biomass hydrolysis was performed by 38 minutes at 120 °C / 1 atm with 6% H 2 SO 4 solution and solid / liquid ratio of 1:3.2. Chromatographic characterization of the hemicellulosic hydrolyzate showed the presence of glucose (7.57 g L ). Both yeasts were able to produce ethanol from the acid hydrolyzate from sunflower cake. The fermentation carried out with G. geotrichum UFVJM-R10 and C. akabanensis UFVJM-R131 presented Y P/S values of 0.29 and 0.27 g ethanol g -1 sugars , respectively. The amounts of the inhibitors identified in the hydrolyzate did not affect the efficiency of the alcoholic fermentation. The supplementation of the hydrolyzate with nitrogen and mineral sources increased the rate of consumption of xylose and arabinose.
