Abstract

Recycling of an agro-waste is not only value-added of waste product, but it also reduces residues from industry. In this research work, low quality starch as a waste from cassava starch production was used as a raw material to transform to be sugar product, which could be applied in energy production and chemical industry. The effect of heat pretreatment at different temperatures (50, 60 and 70 degree Celsius) following with photocatalytic reaction (titanium dioxide 1 g under UV light 0.35 mW/cm2) on sugar production was determined. It was found that sugar production significantly increased with increase of heat treatment. The best condition was heat treatment at 70 degree Celsius for 30 min, photocatalytic reaction time at 150 min, which produced total sugar content of 121.23 mg/liter.
