"Tofu waste can be used as a raw material for bioethanol production due to its high carbohydrate content in the form of starch. A microbial consortium, consisting of Aspergillus niger and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The study’s first objective wasto capture the amount of sugar produced from starch hydrolysis using single cultures of Aspergillus niger.The study’s second objective wasto determine the amount of ethanol produced by the SSF technique. Aspergillus niger was used to produce an amylase enzyme that hydrolyzes starch into simple sugar.Then, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used to produce bioethanol from the sugar produced earlier.The synthesis of bioethanol consists of two main stages, hydrolysis and fermentation. In previous studies, the hydrolysis and fermentation processes were performed separatelyusing a separated hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF)technique. This studyprocesses via a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) technique which produced higher substrate efficiency, cell yield, and product yield compared to the SHF process.The characterization process showed that tofu waste flour was mainly composed of carbohydrates, which comprised 52.82±0.01% (dw) and had a starch content of 35.1±0.2% (dw). Sugar from the starch of the tofu waste was produced by batch system cultivation for 84 hours using Aspergillus niger. The highest sugar production (14.48 g/L) was achieved during the 48th hour. Then, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used to convert the produced sugar into bioethanol. The production of bioethanol by SSF using a microbial consortium for 72 hours was 7.69 g/L of bioethanol, with a yield of bioethanol per substrate use (Yp/s) of 0.23 g ethanol/g substrate and a substrate conversion efficiency of 88%."

"Fermentasi asam suksinat dari tandan kosong kelapa sawit (TKKS) menggunakan bakteri amobil dari rumen sapi saat ini sedand diteliti. TKKS adalah salah satu bahan baku yang dapat digunakan untuk produksi asam suksinat karena memiliki kandungan glukosa, harga rendah, serta tersedia banyak di alam. Asam suksinat dapat diproduksi dengan beberapa metode seperti fermentasi yang dianggap lebih ramah lingkungan karena mengkonsumsi CO₂ selama prosesnya sehingga berkontribusi pada pengurangan emisi CO₂. Bakteri yang digunakan dalam percobaan ini diisolasi dari rumen sapi dan akan diimobilisasi sebelum masuk ke proses produksi asam suksinat. Fermentasi dilakukan dengan teknik Semi Simurrentous Saccharification and Fermentation (SSSF). Hidrolisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan enzim selulase selama 2 - 6 jam sebelum fermentasi terjadi. Yeast extract sebagai sumber nitrogen dan MgCO₃ sebagai zat pengatur pH divariasikan kemudian akan hasil fermentasi berupa konsentrasi asam suksinat, yield, dan produktivitas akan dibandingkan. Fermentasi dilakukan selama 48 jam dalam water bath shaker dan suhunya dijaga pada suhu 37^oC. Produk fermentasi akan dianalisis menggunakan HPLC untuk mengetahui kandungan asam suksinat. Kondisi fermentasi optimal untuk produksi asam suksinat didapatkan saat: waktu hidrolisis - 6 jam, sumber pH awal - 20 g/L, konsentrasi agen pengatur pH awal - 20 g/L. Pada kondisi yang dioptimalkan ini, produksi maksimum asam suksinat ditemukan menjadi 1,43 g/L dengan hasil asam suksinat dengan konsentrasi glukosa awal dan 0,0297 g/L. produktivitas.

The fermentation of succinic acid from oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) using immobilized bacteria from cow rumen were investigated. EFB is one of raw material that can be used for succinic acid production due to its cellulose content, low prices, and availability. Succinic acid can be produced effectively by several methods, one of them is fermentation which considered more environmentally friendly due to CO₂ consumed during the process, thereby potentially contributing to reduction of CO₂ emission. Bacteria used in this experiment were isolated from cow rumen which must be immobilized before getting into succinic acid production process.

Fermentation is done by Semi Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation (SSSF) technique. Saccharification was carried out using cellulase enzyme for 2 – 6 hours before fermentation occurs. Yeast extract as nitrogen sources and MgCO₃ as pH regulating agent were varied and compared in terms of product concentration, yield, and productivity. Fermentation was carried out for 48 hours in shaker water bath and the temperature maintained at 37^oC. Fermentation product was then examined using HPLC to find out the succinic acid content.

The optimum fermentation conditions for succinic acid production were found to be: saccharification time – 2 hours, initial nitrogen sources concentration – 20 g/L, initial pH regulating agent concentration – 20 g/L. At these optimized condition, the maximum production of succinic acid was found to be 1.47 g/L with 19.64 g/g yield of succinic acid to initial glucose concentration and 0.03 g/L.h productivity."
