To quantify the conversion of agricultural waste to bioethanol. Procedure: The agricultural wastes were got and then blended for 3 min. The juice was extracted by filtering using a double-fold of cotton gauze cloth, and particulate matter was removed by centrifuging at 10,000 g for 10 min at 4°C. The undiluted juice was stored, and the waste material obtained from the extraction of juice at -20°C until use. Kluyveromyces marxianus on the Yeast-Malt (YM) agar containing 10 g/L glucose, 5 g/L peptone, 3 g/L yeast extract, 3 g/L malt extract, and 20 g/L agar were maintained. Culture was prepared by inoculating two loopfuls of the fungus in a 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask with 100 mL growth medium containing 30 g/L glucose, 5 g/L yeast extract, 2 g/L NH4Cl, 1 g/L KH2PO4, 0.3 g/LMgSO47H2O.
