Pre-treatment of sago fibre for maximum fermentable sugars production
~Sago hampas or sago fibre derived from sago effluent was subjected to pre-treatment for production of fermentable sugars and further fermented to ethanol. Pre-treatment of sago fibre was important to increase fibre susceptibility toward enzymatic hydrolysis. In the study on pre-treatment, differ...

~Sago hampas or sago fibre derived from sago effluent was subjected to pre-treatment for
production of fermentable sugars and further fermented to ethanol. Pre-treatment of sago
fibre was important to increase fibre susceptibility toward enzymatic hydrolysis. In the study
on pre-treatment, different pre-treatments were investigated; steaming, alkaline boiling
followed by suspending in diluted acid (acid suspending) and alkaline boiling followed by
boiling in diluted acid (acid boiling} The study revealed that steaming pre-treatment gave
high lignin reduction (49.2%) and significant cellulose convertibility (41.99 ± 8.12%),
suggesting that steaming as the best pre-treatment along with absence of chemical

optimization displayed the high cellulose recovery (39.63 ± 9.23%), hydrolyzed reducing
sugars (36.85 ± 0.95 giL) and starch content (12.28 ± 0.19 giL) achieved at fibre

demonstrated at 20% and 0.5% (v/w), respectively. Optimal parameters in enzymatic
hydrolysis of sago fibre to fermentable sugars were investigated. In optimal pH
