Cellulose Extraction from Durio spp Fruit Peel: A Review

Abstrak

The main purpose of this study is to conduct a systematic review of the cellulose extraction method from durian peel and identify the most effective and efficient method based on the existing literature. A total of 20 relevant scientific articles were successfully identified and analyzed. The results show that chemical methods, especially delignification with sodium chlorite acid and mercerization with sodium hydroxide, are the most effective methods in producing cellulose with a yield of up to 75% and purity of up to 85%. Mechanical and enzymatic methods have the advantage of lower cost and environmental friendliness, but lower yield and purity than chemical methods. The study concluded that chemical methods are the best option for the extraction of cellulose from durian peels, with further research recommendations for the development of more efficient enzymatic methods as well as optimization of chemical extraction conditions to reduce environmental impacts.
