Abstract

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is produce extracellularly by acetic acid bacte�ria through oxidative fermentation. Utilization of waste water of palm flour indus�try as a medium for bacterial cellulose production is a new breakthrough, because the palm flour industry is quite large in Banten and an effort to reduce environ�mental pollution due to the waste. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Acetobacter xylinum concentration to the bacterial cellulose production. In this study, it was found that the concentration of Acetobacter xylinum greatly affects the bacterial cellulose produced. The highest yield of bacterial cellulose was 60.7% at 15% Acetobacter xylinum concentration.
