The present work describes comparative dilute acid pretreatment of the argan pulp (residue produced during the argan oil extraction) used as an economical source for bioethanol production. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the pretreatment process and to explore the effect of operational parameters (acid concentration, temperature, time and biomass loading), depending on the acid type (HCl, H2SO4) and pretreatment approach, on total and reducing sugars recovery, in addition to phenolic compounds rate as inhibitors produced during pretreatment process. Experimental results predict an optimal yield of total and reducing sugars of 171.46 mg/ml and 54.83 mg/ml, respectively, were achieved at an optimized time of 30 min with 7% of sulfuric acid at 160°C using 40 % for biomass loading.

Abstract The aim of this work was to evaluate the economic feasibility of the bioethanol production (BEP) based on olive tree pruning (OTP) as a biomass feedstock with optimization of the dilute acid pretreatment in focus. For this, the BEP was simulated taking into account the influence of the operating conditions of the pretreatment stage. Then, the techno-economic results were analyzed by means of the response surface methodology (RSM). The results show that lowest price of BE was 1.94 USD l−1 with a yield of 174.12 l t−1 OTP under optimal conditions. As a conclusion, the raw material cost has a strong influence in the economic feasibility of the BEP from OTP. The inclusion of other processing lines into the process would improve the process economy.
