Study on bioethanol production by using oil palm trunk (opt) sap

Fossil fuels were used in large quantities as a solvent and chemical feedstock in various industries. Due to limited stock of fossil fuel and rapid increase of energy demand in Malaysia, bioethanol has become a very important and necessary alternative energy source in order to replace the limited fo...
