Optimization of bioethanol production from papaya waste through fermentation using response surface methodology (RSM)
Abstract:Abstract. There is a growing pressure for the development of sustainable and environmental-friendly source of energy such as ethanol that could substitute the depleting fossil fuels. Papaya waste including papaya seed and papaya peel is one of the main fruit wastes in Southeast Asia which has great potential to be utilized as substrate for bioethanol production. In this study, papaya waste was fermented to produce bioethanol using Saccharomyces Cerevisiae. The effect of pH, temperature, and incubation time on … Show more
