The effect of biological, chemical, and physical pre-treatment on solid pineapple waste for fermentable sugar production

Solid pineapple waste is a good source for lactic acid production, as it is rich in sugar. Lactic acid major applications are in food, textile, leather and chemical industries.

Lactic acid major applications are in food, textile, leather and chemical industries. The pre-treatment of solid pineapple waste is really significant in order to improve lactic acid production. The type of pre-treatment is preferred based on the end product. Three types of pre-treatment methods were investigated to determine the highest sugar produced for lactic acid fermentation; physical, chemical and biological method. In the physical pre-treatment, a microwave was used. The pre-treatment was conducted under 150 rpm for 1 hour. Prior to the pre-treatment, the waste was treated with both acid and alkali solutions. Sampling was performed every 10 minutes. Next, the chemical pre-treatment was conducted by using H2SO4. The concentration used in the range of 1% (v/v) and 3% (v/v). The temperature was varied in the range of 100-120°C temperature. As for biological method, white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was used to remove the lignin. The fungi was inoculated into the hydrolysate and allowed to fermentate (pre-treatment) for 10 days under 30°C. All samples collected from the pre-treatment methods were analysed using HPLC (for sugar content) and ADF and NDF (for lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose content). The pre-treated waste was classified based on their sugar content and also percentage of lignin removal. The pre-treated waste was classified based on their sugar content and also percentage of lignin removal. The best pre-treatment method was then concluded based on the, sugar content, percentage of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose before and after pretreatment for the production of Lactic acid.Solid pineapple waste is a good source for lactic acid production, as it is rich in sugar.
