Thermal Hydrolysis of Orange Peel and its Fermentation with Alginate Beads to Produce Ethanol

Orange peel (OP) was subjected to thermal hydrolysis at temperature (T) and pressure (P) values lower than 180 °C and 1000 kPa, respectively, to minimize the energy consumption and obtain a good ethanol yield. The process was conducted in an autoclave, a pressurized reactor for studying the effect o...
