Abstract
Sap is a watery fluid that transports plant photosynthetic products towards
various tissues to support growth. Tapping palms for their sap is reported to
have originated from India approximately 4,000 years ago. Palm sap is rich in
sugars with some inorganics and nutrients, which are attractive components
for bioethanol production. Based on advances and current knowledge on the
availability, collection, yield, and exploitation of various palm saps, this
article evaluates their potential and sustainability as feedstocks for
bioethanol production.
