Jackfruit seeds is one of the feedstock that contain high carbohydrate content but less utilized. The aims of this study to determine the effect of pH hydrolysis in the process of production bioethanol from jackfruit seeds (Artocarpus heterophyllus) through separate fermentation hydrolysis (SHF) method. The hydrolysis process uses H2SO4 as a hydrolyzing agent. The fermentation process used Saccharomyces cereviceae as a fermentor with a variation of pH 2,3 4 and 5 for 70 hours. The results showed that glucose content of 75% and pH 3 was the optimum pH of fermentation with the content of bioethanol 57.94%. The fermentation stage has an important role in increasing the levels of glucose and bioethanol in linear. The content of glucose and bioethanol of jackfruit seeds showed a great potential for development as the feedstock in bioethanol production. ## Keywords - Fermentation - Artocarpus - Biofuel - Hydrolysis - Raw material - Chemistry - Food science - Enzymatic hydrolysis - Pulp and paper industry - Biotechnology - Botany - Biochemistry - Biology - Organic chemistry - Engineering --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
