This document summarizes a research project that optimized pectinase production from different organic wastes. The objectives were to determine the optimal ratio of citrus fruit peel powder and wheat bran for maximum pectinase production at lowest cost. Different ratios of mosambi, kinnu and orange peels with wheat bran were tested, and mosambi peel with wheat bran at a 1:3 ratio produced the highest pectinase activity. Incubation for 25 minutes was found to be the optimum time for pectin breakdown. The research concluded that mosambi peel is the best substrate for producing pectinase using this solid-state fermentation method.
