Biodelignifikasi Limbah Tanaman Jagung Menggunakan Kapang Pelapuk Putih Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Abstract

Lignocellulose is the major structural component of plants which represents a major source of renewable organic renewable. Lignocellulose composed of three major components. They are cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin. Corn stover is lignocellulosic material which have large potential for the development future products. Corn stover consists of cellulose (36,81%), hemicelluloses (27,01%), lignin (15,70%), ash (6,04%) and other material (14,44%). Lignin is complexs macromolecules. Lignin is further linked to both hemicelluloses and cellulose forming. Lignin acts as a barrier for hydrolysis of cellulose. Biodelignification is use technologies with enviromentall-friendly such as biology system, use advantages from organisms to separated cellulose fiber from lignin. Some white-rot fungi has used to lignin degradation. The most commonly utilized fungus is the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The goal of this research is to determine of effects, temperature, and fungus addition to to find the best condition in the bidelignification process of corn stover with Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The lowest number for temperature and fungus addition were consecutively 30oC and 2,5 ml. While for the highest number were consecutively 70oC and 10 ml. Methods that was used to know the best condition was response surface method. The experimental result shows that significant factor in biodelignification is temperature. The best condition from corn stover biodelignification is estimated 30oC, 10 ml fungus addition. In this condition, corn stover contents from 1,671 gram lignin, 1,868 gram hemicellulose, and 2,514 gram α-cellulose, with beginning weight before biodelignification is 10 gram (dry). So that condition to produce lignin removal 11,73 % (0,222 gram), α-cellulose removal 24,59 % (0,82 gram) and hemicelllulose removal 32,44 % (0,897 gram).
