PRODUCTION OF BIO-ETHANOL FROM RICE HUSK: EFFECT USING DIFFERENT PRE-TREATMENTS AND FERMENTATION INHIBITORS: A REVIEW
Authors: Panchal B and Shrivastav A*

ABSTRACT
Rice is staple food and the byproduct of husk which is rich in cellulose, can be converted into Bio-ethanol production. Rice husk is one of the lignocelluloses feed stocks in the world. It contains mixture of pentose and hexose sugars. It is selected for ethanol production. Rice husk is also major byproduct of rice milling. Rice husk is the important biomass byproduct of the rice. An industry produces 20% of the total cereal production and is considered as a waste. Bioethanol is an environmental alternative to petroleum energy sources. Bio-ethanol produced by lignocellulosic waste such as rice husk can be most economical and efficient. Lignocellulosic material is an important feedstock for Bio-ethanol production because of increasing environmental and food security concerns. The production of bio-ethanol from lignocellulosic waste comes under the second generation bio-fuel production. The use of agricultural residual wastes is the cost effective way for the ethanol production.
