Production of xylose from oil palm frond fibre by acid hydrolysis
Oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) is one of the oil palm biomass which is available in a large amount worldwide in oil palm plantation. Oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) is cheap, widely available, and has high potential to be a renewable source for the production of xylose. This paper presents the production o...

This paper presents the production of xylose from oil palm frond fibre by acid hydrolysis. The presence of xylose was tested using DNS analysis. In this research, diluted acid hydrolysis was applied for the treatment of oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) and several parameters including temperature (70, 85, and 100 °C), acid concentration (1, 3, and 5 M), and solid to liquid ratio (0.5 g:10 mL, 0.5 g:12.5 mL, and 0.5 g:15 mL) were taken into account in order to get the optimum conditions for xylose recovery from oil palm frond fibre (OPFF).

Oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) is one of the oil palm biomass which is available in a large amount worldwide in oil palm plantation. Oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) is cheap, widely available, and has high potential to be a renewable source for the production of xylose. This paper presents the production of xylose from oil palm frond fibre by acid hydrolysis. The presence of xylose was tested using DNS analysis. In this research, diluted acid hydrolysis was applied for the treatment of oil palm frond fibre (OPFF) and several parameters including temperature (70, 85, and 100 °C), acid concentration (1, 3, and 5 M), and solid to liquid ratio (0.5 g:10 mL, 0.5 g:12.5 mL, and 0.5 g:15 mL) were taken into account in order to get the optimum conditions for xylose recovery from oil palm frond fibre (OPFF).
