Sap from various palms as a renewable energy source for bioethanol production

Sap is a watery fluid that transports plant photosynthetic products towards various tissues to support growth. Tapping palms for their sap is reported to have originated from India approximately 4,000 years ago. Palm sap is rich in sugars with some inorganics and nutrients, which are attrac...
