Abstract
Oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB), a type of lignocellulosic biomass, is an easily obtainable resource for producing environmentally benign compounds like ethanol and levulinic acid. The difficulty of getting catalysts and enzymes to permeate the cellulose components in the biomass, however, is a major obstacle to turning it into useful compounds. Furthermore, because lignin is resistant, its presence may impede the conversion process. This work highlights different pretreatment strategies, such as lowering sugars and their derivatives, that are meant to improve the yield of important chemicals from oil palm biomass. In order to increase the effectiveness of the succeeding procedures that turn these materials into high-value compounds, a well-designed pretreatment technique is essential. The purpose of this research is to clarify the advantages and disadvantages of various pretreatment techniques used with oil palm biomass. It also examines how different pretreatment techniques affect the oil palm biomass's hydrolysis reaction efficiency.
