Ethanol production from agro-industrial waste (thippi) was analyzed as low-cost feedstock using mixed culture fermentation. Reducing sugars yield by acid hydrolysis was 395.2 g kg À1 thippi and ethanol yield was 35.8 g kg À1 thippi. However, reducing sugars in enzyme hydrolysis was 535.33 g kg À1 th
