RECYCLING WASTE SMS AS A SOURCE OF FUEL BIOETHANOLA.S. DESHMUKHAbstract P. sajor-caju spent mushroom substrate from agrowaste was pretreated with 2% NaOH with heating as first pretreatment and microwave as second pretreatment followed by fermentation using 2%, 4%, 6% bakerâs yeast for 2 to 8 days duration. Special additions by mushroom alone, (Mushroom, Jaggary (5g, 10g, 15g each) in combination), (Mushroom, Mahua flower (5g, 10g, 15g each) in combination) was done randomly at 40 oC I pretreatment 4% 6 days sample at fermentation step. Extracted bioethanol was estimated using titrimetric as well as spectrophotometric methods. Random samples were used for GCMS estimation method. Also, the surface alterations and cellulose crystallinity were studied using SEM and XRD respectively, 3 times enhancement in bioethanol production was recorded by addition with mushroom+ jaggary (15g each) followed by 2.85 times increase with addition of mushroom + jaggary (10 g each). |
