Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel processes for producing ethanol from citrus waste using suitable solvent extractions to reduce the presence of fermentation inhibiting compounds, such as limonene, from citrus waste. The extraction can be performed before or after the polysaccharides present in aqueous mixtures comprising citrus waste are converted into fermentable sugars.
