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

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...
