Potential of durian, avocado and jackfruit seed as raw material of bioethanol: a review

Abstract

Abstract The using of fuel oil is very consumptive so that it increases every year, as decreasing the availability of non-renewable natural resources, therefore the use of alternative energy (renewable energy). Renewable energy is a natural source of energy produced that will not be exhausted and can be sustainable if managed properly, among another biofuel. The purpose of this article to review the potential of tropical fruit seeds: durian, avocado, and jackfruit as raw materials for bioethanol production include stages: starch extraction, hydrolysis process using acid as catalyst, and fermentation. From available research data, the potential of tropical fruit seeds needs to be developed as raw material for making bioethanol.
