Enzymatic Saccharification on Ammonia Pre-treated Oil Palm Trunk Biomass for Glucose Production: an Optimization Using Response Surface Methodology

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: This paper reported the optimization of glucose production from ammonia pre-treated oil palm trunk biomass via enzymatic saccharification process using response surface methodology (RSM).A set of experiment was computed by face centered central composite design (FCCCD) using Design Expert software to statistically evaluate the findings.Three independent variables namely: temperature (35 -55 °C), pH (4.5 -6.5) and enzyme ratio (cellullase: β-glucosidase; 3:1 -7:1) were investigated under the given conditions designed by RSM.The experimental result (4.964 ± 0.006 g.L -1 ) was in good agreement with RSM model prediction (4.958 g.L -1 ) with an error less than 0.2 %.The RSM design has been proven to successfully predict the glucose response in this study.
