Abstract

Because of their high oil content in the kernel and ability to reduce green-
house gas emissions, non-edible Jatropha, Karanja, and Styrax officinalis L
seeds are primarily used in biodiesel production. Outstanding demand for
biodiesel, as well as a huge amount of waste, is growing year after year. As
a result, the research analysis includes the hydrolysis, saccharification, and
fermentation of non-edible de-oiled cakes derived from the aforementioned
plants. The study research includes the generation of bio-ethanol from non-
edible cakes, as well as the de-oiled seed kernel, which is incubated at 200◦C,
25◦C, 30◦C, 35◦C, with pH 4, 5, 6, 7, and a holding time of 24 hours to
produce the solid fuel. The compound cake is then fermented for 72 hours
at 28◦C with Saccharomyces cerevisiae with a PH range of 5 to 6, and the
substrate is autoclaved for 5 minutes at 15 psi pressure. Furthermore, this
research study performed centrifuge harvesting at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes
at 4◦C. The study’s findings demonstrate the time-related conversion of sugar
(DNSA) and alcohol production (potassium dichromate) treatment, which
outperforms the prior acid hydrolysis process.
