Production of abe (acetone-butanol-ethanol) from pome by clostridium beijerinckii

Malaysia was one of the biggest producers and exporters of palm oil and palm oil products (Malaysian Palm Oil Council, 2012). Thus, the total oil palm cover has increased with a corresponding increase in palm oil production. As a result, palm oil waste which was a by-product of the milling process w...
