A kinetic study of solid state bioconversion for the production of citric acid from oil palm empty fruit bunches was conducted. Locally isolated Aspergillus niger IBO-103MNB (IMI396649) was used for this study. As citric acid production typically exhibits product-associated kinetics, both fungal gro...
