Bioconversion of Oil Palm Trunks Sap to Bioethanol by Different Strains and Co-Cultures at Different Temperatures

Oil palm plantation (OPT) generates a large amount of agricultural waste in a form of oil palm trunk sap. The content of sap (juice) from OPT can be used to produce ‘higher value things’ including bioethanol. In this research, sap was utilised as the raw material for producing bioethanol using diffe...
