Alcohol production from pineapple waste

World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1990
Saccharomyces cerevisiae andZymomonas mobilis were grown on pineapple waste and their alcohol production characteristics compared. The pineapple waste consisted of 19% cellulose, 22% hemi-cellulose, 5% lignin and 53% cell soluble matters but concentration of soluble sugars, which included 5.2% sucrose, 3.1% glucose and 3.4% fructose, was relatively low

Heat and sound insulation applications of pineapple aerogels from pineapple waste

Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Abstract Given the harmful effects of agricultural waste residues on the environment and the abundance of pineapple byproducts after harvest, converting pineapple waste into a high-engineering value product for practical applications is one of the solutions toward sustainable development in developing countries. For the first time, flexible cellulose

STUDYING THE PROSPECTS OF USING PINEAPPLE WASTE RAW

"Medical & pharmaceutical journal "Pulse", 2023
The problem of expanding the range of herbal medicines can be solved through the use of plant objects traditionally used in the food industry, characterized by the presence of a wide range of pharmacological activity, and the most promising raw materials are processing waste, in terms of the content of biologically active substances (BAS), not inferior

Ensilage of pineapple processing waste for methane generation

Waste Management, 2004
Pineapple peel wastes, which are seasonal, comprise of peels and rags. Their disposal poses a serious environmental pollution problem. Since pineapple peel is rich in cellulose, hemicellulose and other carbohydrates it was found to be a potential substrate for methane generation by anaerobic digestion.

Metabolite profiling and volatiles of pineapple wine and vinegar obtained from pineapple waste

Food Chemistry, 2017
Vinegar is an inexpensive commodity, and economic considerations require that a relatively low-cost raw material be used for its production. An investigation into the use of a new, alternative substrate - pineapple waste - is described. This approach enables the utilization of the pineapple's (Ananas comosus) peels and core, which are usually discarded

Biomethanation of banana peel and pineapple waste

Bioresource Technology, 1996
Biomethanation of banana peel and pineapple wastes studied at various HRTs showed a higher rate of gas production at lower retention time. The lowest possible HRT for banana peel was 25 days, resulting in a maximum rate of gas production of 0.76 vol/vol/day with 36% substrate utilization, while pineapple-processing waste digesters could be operated at ...

Pineapple wastes: A potential source for bromelain extraction

Food and Bioproducts Processing, 2012
Abstract This study investigates the isolation and characterization of bromelain extract from the wastes of Nang Lae and Phu Lae pineapple cultivars (economical fruits of Chiang Rai province, Thailand). The waste portions such as the peel, core, stem and crown were 29–40%, 9–10%, 2–5% and 2–4% (w/w), respectively.

Fermentation of Waste Pineapple Peel as Electricity Source

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
Indonesia is a country that uses a lot of coal as a source of energy for power plants. It is not comparable to the availability of coal that is likely to be depleted. The way to solve this problem is by utilizing the waste pineapple peel. Pineapple (Ananas comocus) is a type of tropical plant that is widely grown in Prabumulih, South Sumatera.
