3. Bioethanol
 Renewable
 Environmental friendly
 Not compete with food and
feed
 Unblended bioethanol fuel or
Blended with gasoline
C2H5OH + 3 O2 → 2 CO2 + 3 H2O + heat

4. First Generation Bioethanol

5. First Generation Bioethanol
Ethanol from sugar (sugarcane, etc) and amylum (starch, casava, corn, etc).

6. Second Generation Bioethanol

 Not compete with
food and feet

10. Oil Palm Waste
Abundant and un-use

Pretreatment

13. Pretreatment of Lignocelullose
Mosier et al. (2005)
Pretreatment:
• Mechanical
• Physical
• Chemical
• Biological
• Combination
Pretreatments have as a goal
to improve the digestibility of
the lignocellulosic biomass
(Hendriks and Zeeman, 2008).

14. Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages Disadvantages
• No chemical added • Take more times
• Less energy used • Need more places
• More environmental
friendly
Biological pretreatment of EFB by white-rot fungi
compared with physical/chemical pretreatment

15. White-rot Fungi
Enzymes produced by
lignocellulytic fungi:
• Laccase
• Mangan Peroxidase (Mn P)
• Lignin Peroxidase (Li P)
White-rot fungi are the only known organisms
that, to any extent, mineralize lignin to CO2
and water in pure culture (Gold and Alic, 1993)
