Journal ArticleDOI

Physicochemical characterization of alkali pretreated sugarcane tops and optimization of enzymatic saccharification using response surface methodology

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of solid loading, enzyme loading, incubation time and surfactant concentration on enzymatic saccharification was studied using a response surface method according to Box-Behnken design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Utilization of rice straw for laccase production by Streptomyces psammoticus in solid-state fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a one factor at a time approach to identify the optimal levels of the factors that had considerable influence on enzyme production by response surface methodology, and statistical optimization performed using a central composite design resulted in threefold increase in enzyme activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cultivation of microalgae in dairy effluent for oil production and removal of organic pollution load.

TL;DR: Dairy effluent (DE) was evaluated for cultivation of the oleaginous micro alga Chlorococcum sp.
Journal Article

Solid-state fermentation of lignocellulosic substrates for cellulase production by Trichoderma reesei NRRL 11460

TL;DR: Results indicate the scope for further optimization of the production conditions to obtain higher cellulase titres using the strain under SSF.
Journal ArticleDOI

High temperature pretreatment and hydrolysis of cotton stalk for producing sugars for bioethanol production

TL;DR: In this paper, different pretreatment strategies were tried using sodium hydroxide in a high pressure reactor equipped with a pitch blade turbine stirrer, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis using cellulases; the process optimization was carried out using Taguchi experimental design.
