Characterization of liquid pineapple waste as carbon source for production of succinic acid

Pineapple cannery produces large amount of solid and liquid waste. The disposal of waste without an appropriate treatment can cause a great environmental pollution. Since pineapple waste contains some valuable components such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, the ability to convert this waste into h...

Characterization of liquid pineapple waste as carbon source for production of succinic acid
description Pineapple cannery produces large amount of solid and liquid waste. The disposal of waste without an appropriate treatment can cause a great environmental pollution.

Therefore, in this study, liquid pineapple waste was characterized in order to investigate the possibility of succinic acid production via fermentation using liquid pineapple waste as a carbon source. The physical and chemical composition in the liquid pineapple waste such as cation, anion, pH, sugar content and soluble protein were determined.
