ABSTRACT ABSTRACT ABSTRACT ABSTRACT ABSTRACT Ethanol digestion of oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) fibres at a temperature between 165ºC -180ºC for 2 hr and at a solid-to-liquid ratio of 10:1, ethanol-to-water ratio of 1:1, and with or without 10% 1 N HCl and 1.25 M NaOH as catalysts was studied in order to prepare cellulose via ethanol pulping. The pulp produced was studied for yield, moisture content, solubility in cold/hot water and 1% NaOH, lignin, holocellulose and α-cellulose content. The highest yield of pulp (57%, oven dried weight basis) was from OPEFB fibres digested at 170ºC for 2 hr without addition of catalyst, whereas OPEFB fibres digested at 175ºC for 2 hr with acid catalyst gave the lowest yield of 45% (oven dried weight...
