Abstract

The use of fossil fuels has increasingly intensified the emission of polluting gases into the atmosphere, thus, second generation ethanol, obtained by lignocellulosic raw material, appears as an alternative because it is considered clean energy. Biofuel can be produced from residues generated from fruit production, such as mango peel, which has a composition that is satisfactory for the production of bioethanol. This work had as objective, the production of fermentable sugars, from this raw material, for that, a factorial planning was carried out about the main variables of interest in the process, and the acid hydrolysis technique was used. It was possible to observe a 25.49% increase in the formation of fermentable sugars compared to the fresh composition of the material under study.
