Properties of microcrystalline cellulose prepared from oil palm empty fruit bunch at different sulfuric acid concentration and hydrolysis temperature

In this study, a green process was studied for the preparation of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) from empty fruit bunch (EFB) by two steps of processes: steam explosion treatment and hydrolysis of sulphuric acid (H2SO4). Prior to hydrolysis, the EFB was treated with steam at 17 bar for 10 min. The...
