Abstract
The increase in ethanol productivity by the delignified cellulosic (DC ) material, prepared from sawdust after lignin removal, is reported. T he DC material increased ethanol productivity by 120%. Final ethanol c oncentration of 113 ml C2H5OH/l was obtained in the presence of DC mat erial compared with 84 ml C2H5OH/l in its absence when the initial sug ar concentration of molasses was 198 g/l.
