In this study, we developed a method to produce bioethanol from sawdust of medium density fiberboard (MDF). MDF is a engineered wood product made from wood fibers, which are mixed with synthetic adhesive and heat-pressed into flat panels. Since wood fibers in MDF might be covered with adhesive and harmful ingredients inhibiting fermentation might exist in MDF, the ethanol production efficiency was expected to decline, and we tried to optimize conditions for hydrothermal treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, etc. We discovered that the saccharification rate became maximum when MDF sawdust was processed by fine grinding and digested by the cellulase cocktail. And the fermentation rate became maximum by washing the fine-grinded sawdust after the heat treatments process.
