Abstract
Starch extraction from plantain peel wastes has proven potential for waste use and obtaining value-added products. Average starch yield was 29% (from dry mass), while purity reached almost 70%. Two-way ANOVA analysis reflects the ascorbic acid concentration effect on starch yield while it demonstrates that there is no significant interaction between ascorbic acid concentration and immersion time.
