Aspergillus niger strainsSSF on AFEX-treated rice rust and rice bran, whey and sugarcanebagasse and obtained a maximum of 40 U/g of dry substrate by A.niger ATCC 16404. The enzyme complex produced by this culturewas 2.25 times better than that produced by Trichoderma reeseiCCT 2768 for the hydrolysis and ethanol fermentation. Xin et al.[14] also produced cellulases enzyme complex for the hydrolysis oforganosolv-pretreated horticultural waste (HW) for ethanol pro-duction. The crude cellulases showed better reducing sugar yieldusing filter paper than the commercial enzyme blend
