Abstract:Citric acid is one of the essential organic acids in human life and rice husk has the potential to be used as a substrate because it contains about 28.6-43.3% cellulose, and its use, does not compete with human needs. This research aims to increase citric acid production by using rice husk as a substrate, with a working volume of 2000 mL. In this study, it produced citric acid using submerged fermentation and Aspergillus niger at 22.42% w/v rice husk conditions, 10% w/v sucrose, 3% v/v methanol, and 400 rpm ag… Show more
