Abstract

The oil palm industry generates significant biomass waste, particularly oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), which pose environmental and economic challenges due to their high lignocellulosic content. Efficiently managing this waste through biological pretreatment offers a sustainable solution. This study explores the potential of Schizophyllum commune and Pleurotus sp. for the pretreatment of OPEFB to enhance its usability for biofuel, biofertilizer, and animal feed production.
