Solid state bioconversion of oil palm empty fruit bunches for cellulase enzyme production using a rotary drum bioreactor

Bioconversion of oil palm lignocellulosic biomass in the form of empty fruit bunches (EFB) as the major substrate into cellulase enzyme was studied in the laboratory. A fungal strain, Trichoderma harzianum T2008 was used to evaluate the solid state bioconversion of EFB for cellulase production. The...
