description The biotechnological routes increasing interests among the researchers in employing lignocellulosic biomass since these biomass are cheap, renewable and have potential as sugar sources. Oil palm frond (OPF) is one of the oil palm biomass which is available in a large amount annually worldwide in oil palm plantation. OPF is a cheap, widely available and potential renewable source for the production of xylose. This xylose is very useful as a substrate for the production of natural sweetener of xylitol. In order to recover xylose from biomass of OPF, the process of hydrolysis toward OPF need to be done together with suitable parameter as xylose will be used as medium in xylitol production for the next process.
