- IIT Guwahati have created a fermentation process that uses ultrasound to safely generate Xylitol from sugarcane bagasse.
- It is the by-product of crushing sugar cane.
- This approach gets over the operational constraints of chemical synthesis and the time lags of traditional fermentation.
- The use of ultrasound during the fermentation process reduced the time of fermentation to 15 hours.
- It also increased the yield of the product by almost 20%.
