Optimization Study by Response Surface Methodology and Artificial Neural Network on the Culture Parameters of Citric Acid Bioproduction from Sweet Potato PeelsBy Uku, P. E., Dike, J. I
Abstract: In the cause of this research work, two steps enzymatic hydrolysis of sweet potato peel was carried out respectively. The effect of α-amylase dose, reaction time, and reaction temperature and biomass weight on glucose concentration was investigated carefully. The response surface methodology (REM) predicted the highest reducing sugar concentration at liquefaction to be 74 g/L, at the following optimized conditions; temperature of 45°C, α-amylase dose 0.7 %v/v, biomass weight 22.345 …
