Optimized Fermentation Process for Improved Bioethanol Production from Sweet and Bitter Cassava Processing Wastes

Obueh H.O*, Ikenebomeh, M. J,, Oshoma, C.E

Optimization of fermentation process for 72 h was carried out to determine the effect of pH (3 – 8), temperature (30°C – 50°C) and agitation rate (200 rpm – 500 rpm) on bioethanol production and microbial count using cassava variety samples. Bioethanol yield and microbial count were highest at pH 6, temperature 35°C and agitation rate of 300 rpm...
