ABSTRACT

Effect of commercial cellulose enzymes was investigated by batch enzymatic hydrolysis at 15.0% (w/v) solid. It was found that the best commercial cellulose enzyme was Cellic® CTec comparing to Accellerase 1000TM and Accelerase 1500TM. The Cellic® CTec gave the highest reducing sugar concentration and rice straw conversion. Moreover, when the hydrolysate obtained from hydrolysis using Cellic® CTec was fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae TISTR 5596, it would give the highest ethanol. In this study, the Cellic® CTec was used for fed-batch prehydrolysis prior to ethanol production by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) way at 20% (w/v) solid loading. It could produce 35.76 g/L or 4.6% (v/v) of ethanol concentration and 83.67 L/ton dry matter (DM) of yield.

KEYWORDS

Rice straw, sulfuric acid, commercial cellulase, pretreatment, fermentation, ethanol.
