Abstract

Oil palm fronds (OPF) is the most abundant agriculture wastes in Malaysia. This agriculture waste contains lignocellulosic materials that are potentially to be used as renewable material for production of value added products such as biosugar (i.e. xylose and glucose). Xylose is an intermediate product in xylitol production and glucose interferes in the process of separation. These two different types of monosaccharides can possibly be separated using NF membrane according to their molecular size rather than diffusivities. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the performance of pilot scale commercial spiral wound NF membranes (Desal-5 DK, Desal-5 DL and NF90) for separation of xylose from glucose. Using the synthetic sugar solution model, the Desal-5 DK membrane exhibited the highest xylose separation factor up to 1.17 at the operating pressure of 10 bar while the other two membranes were unable to separate the sugars (separation factor less than 1). For the recovery of xylose from the real oil palm frond (OPF) bagasse hydrolysate, the Desal-5 DK membrane perform very well with xylose separation factor of 1.63. Overall, it can be concluded that the spiral wound nanofiltration membrane offers cost-effective and easy-maintenance, which has high potential application in large scale separation of xylose-glucose from OPF bagasse hydrolysate.
