HIDROLISIS LIGNOSELULOSA PELEPAH DAN TANDAN KOSONG KELAPA SAWIT DENGAN KATALIS ZIRKONIA TERSULFATASI
Abstract: Lignocellulosic
biomass which are frond and empty fruit bunches (EFB) is second generation raw
material for ethanol production. Lignocellulose usage is expected to create a
green process. Utilization of lignocellulose materials into ethanol involved
four main processes, i.e pretreatment, hydrolysis/sacharification,
fermentation, distillation and dehydration ethanol that was product. This
research aims to optimize hydrolysis process of EFB and frond by using sulfated
zirconia catalyst characterized its physical and chemical properties as a solid
acid catalyst. Catalytic hydrolysis process conducted at 160 DCfor 3 hours gave
the highest TRS (Total Reducing Sugar) which is 17,51 % for EFB while for
frondfor 2 hours which is 19,23 % .
