"The bioetanol development from biomass bases of lignocellulose like bagasse is one of alternative energy which has potential to be applied in Indonesia. Beside of raw material source that is so many in our country, the process is also environmentally friendly. Conversion of bagasse becomes etanol using Simultaneous Sacharification and Fermentation (SSH technology by cellulose and cellobiase enzyme had been done on this research. Sacharification process or hydrolysis process, cellulose enzyme will break cellulose polymer becomes glucose whereas cellobiose enzyme will break cellobiose becomes glucose.

Then, glucose through fermentation is changed to etanol by using yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The variations include pH of system that is pH 4' ; 4,5 and 5, HCI addition low concentrated HCI at pH 5 with variation of concentration that is 0,5 % and I %, also variation of sample at pH 5 where bagasse without pretreatment is compared with bagasse which had been done pretreatment by using fungi Lentinus edodes for 4 weeks.

The result shows that the use of cellulose and cellobiase enzyme with system optimum condition pH 5 produce etanol concentration is higher than using only cellulose enzyme at the same pH condition. For substrate concentration 50 g/L, on the use of cellulose and cellobiase, the highest etanol concentration which is produced bagasse without pretreatment is 5,62 g/L or li,24 % from bagasse. On HCI addition, the highest etanol concentration is produced by concentration HCI i % with amount 6,52 g/L or 13,04 % from bagasse. With bagasse L. edodes and P. ostreatus 6 weelts, the highest etanol concentration that is 6 86 g/L and 6,50 g/L or 13, 72% and l2,99% from bagasse. It also shows that HCl addition low concentrated and pretreatment by white rot fungi L. edodes and P. ostreatus can increase the etanol quantity that is produced from bagasse conversion."

Rice straw and bagasse are natural waste materials that have the potential to be used as fiber boards. Polyvinyl acetate adhesives have been employed because it is relatively economical and this is possible to produce relatively cheap and eco-friendly rice straw-bagasse hybrid boards. Chemical treatment applied to improve the quality of rice straw and bagasse prior the rice straw ? bagasse hybrid board production.This study aimed to determine the optimum composition of rice straw - PVAC white glue boards and the effects of bagasse addition to rice straw boards in order to achieve the optimum composition that provides the best physical and mechanical properties. Optimal composition of rice straw boards was in 30 wt% rice straw that provide a tensile strength of 4.8 MPa, while the optimal composition of hybrid boards is 15 wt% rice straw, 15 wt% bagasse and 70 wt% PVAc resulted a tensile strength of 3.7 MPa. Average density obtained on the hybrid fiber board was 0.75 gr/cm3 with 10 % moisture content and close to 100 % of water absorption. The mechanical and physical properties of these hybrid boards were not very good due to the adhesive used that had a low tensile strength, high viscosity and high water solubility."

"Torrefaction, which is used to improve the properties of sugarcane bagasse as fuel in pulverised fuel combustion and as carbon feed in gasification, is a low heating rate pyrolysis of biomass carried out at a temperature of 200–300oC, at an atmospheric pressure, and in an inert environment. In the present work, sugarcane bagasse was torrefied at heating rates of 3, 6, and 10oC/minute, respectively, to achieve a final temperature of 275oC and after the final temperature was reached, hold times of 0 and 15 minutes, respectively occurred at a constant temperature of 275oC for a heating rate of 6oC/minute. The physical characteristics of torrefied sugarcane bagasse samples to be determined were a particle size distribution accomplished by grinding, hydrophobicity by allowing the samples to absorb moisture from the ambient air, and pellet hardness of the sample pellets. The torrefaction results show that increasing heating rate and hold time reduced the cellulose content of the sugarcane bagasse to as low as between 5.35% to 10.61% by weight composition, respectively. As the lignin content increased, the sample pellets resulted in better hardness in comparison to that measured on raw sugarcane bagasse. As the hemicellulose content increased, the samples, after grinding and stronger hydrophobicity, produced a higher fraction of smaller particle sizes. The maximum weight fraction of particles in these samples with sizes smaller than 105 µm achieved was 83.43% weight in contrast to 0.62% weight in raw sugarcane bagasse. The maximum water absorption by the samples in 3 hours was 1.28% weight in contrast to 8.02% weight by raw sugarcane bagasse. The results indicate that torrefaction is able to improve sugarcane bagasse physical characteristics, which are favourable for biomass pelletization, storage and transportation."

"Bagas merupakan residu padat pada proses pengolahan tebu menjadi gula, yang sejauh ini masih belum banyak dimanfaatkan menjadi produk yang mempunyai nilai tambah (added value). Bagas yang termasuk biomassa mengandung lignoselulosa sangat dimungkinkan untuk dimanfaatkan menjadi sumber energi alternatif seperti bioetanol atau biogas. Dengan pemanfaatan sumber daya alam terbarukan dapat mengatasi krisis energi terutama sektor migas. Pada penelitian ini telah dilakukan konversi bagas menjadi etanol dengan menggunakan enzim xylanase. Perlakuan dengan enzim lainnya saat ini sedang dikerjakan di laboratorium kami mengingat hemisulosa juga mengandung polisakarida lainnya yang dapat didekomposisi oleh berbagai enzim. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kandungan lignoselulosa pada bagas sebesar lebih kurang 52,7% selulosa, 20% hemiselulosa, dan 24,2% lignin. Hemiselulosa merupakan polisakarida yang dapat dihidrolisis oleh enzim xylanase dan kemudian akan difermentasikan oleh yeast S. cerevisiae menjadi etanol melalui proses Sakarifikasi dan Fermentasi Serentak (SSF). Beberapa parameter yang dianalisis pada penelitian ini antara lain kondisi pH (4, 4,5, dan 5), untuk meningkatkan kuantitas etanol dilakukan penambahan HCl berkonsentrasi rendah (0,5% dan 1% (v/v)) dan bagas dengan perlakuan jamur pelapuk putih (L. edodes) selama 4 minggu. Proses SSF dilakukan dengan waktu inkubasi selama 24, 48, 72, dan 96 jam. Perlakuan dengan pH 4, 4,5, dan 5 menghasilkan konsentrasi etanol tertinggi berturut-turut 2,357 g/L, 2,451 g/L, 2,709 g/L. Perlakuan penambahan HCl konsentrasi rendah mampu meningkatkan produksi etanol, penambahan dengan konsentrasi HCL 0,5 % dan 1 % berturut-turut menghasilkan etanol 2,967 g/L, 3,249 g/L. Perlakuan dengan menggunakan jamur pelapuk putih juga dapat meningkatkan produksi etanol yang dihasilkan. Setelah bagas diberi perlakuan L. edodes 4 minggu mampu menghasilkan etanol dengan hasil tertinggi 3,202 g/L.

"The antimicrobial properties of bagasse paper sheets coated withnatural polymers (chitosan, different ratios of (gelatin/glycerol) + chitosan,hemicellulose, hemicellulose + glycerol, hemicellulose+chitosan) orsynthetic organophosphorus dimer compounds were evaluated in this work.Hemicelluloses showed moderate activity against Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans, while chitosan showed weakactivity against B. subtilis. The condition that offered the highest inhibitoryactivity of bagasse paper was the onecoated with 1,3-diaryl-2,2,2,4,4,4-hexachlorocyclodiphosph(V)azane(where aryl is p-chloroaniline or p-anisidine). The developed bagasse paperswere evaluated against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. The highest inhibitory activity was obtained at a concentration of 200mg/mL for p-chloroaniline with an inhibition zone that varied for differentmicrobes from 6.9 mm to 26 mm. The highest inhibitory activity was obtained at300?250 mg/mL for p-anisidine against most of the pathogenic microorganismswith an inhibition zone that varied for different microbes from 8 mm to 14.75mm. The observed antimicrobial and antifungal activity properties for bagasse paper coated with 1,3-diaryl2,2,2,4,4,4-hexachlorocyclodiphosph(V)azane could be attributed to the presence of Cl, P atoms, and the lone pair ofelectrons on N atoms in the structure of the dimers."
