Screening of factors influencing biobutanol production from pineapple waste using 2-level factorial design

Eight local isolated bacteria strain were screened for high biobutanol production using modified Reinforced Clostridia Medium (RCM) at 37°C for 16 hours. Out of eight bacteria strain, only four strains were positive biobutanol producer. From four positive strains, UPM strain produced the highest bio...
