Optimization of bioethanol production using Sugar Sorghum Stem juice


Abstract in English

Producing of biofuel from crops wastes is considered one of the advanced eco- friendly technologies. This research was conducted in the General Commission For Biotechnology in order to study the possibility to use the juice of sugar sorghum plant as alternative substrate to produce bioethanol using S. cerevisiae and optimize the production’ conditions.
