extraction from pineapple leaves and determine the most significant parameters contributing to
the extraction process and its corresponding permittivity value. The soda pulping method was
used in cellulose extraction, and the content was analyzed by the Kurschner-Hanack method. The
one-factor-at-a-time analysis was adopted to study the effect of pulping time on cellulose content
while keeping the other parameters constant. The two-level factorial analysis was used to
determine the significant parameters and the best conditions for the cellulose extraction with
pineapple leaf to soda ratio (1:5 and 1:10), soda concentration (5 and 10 wt%), temperature (60
and 100 ◦ C), and pulping time (46–75 min) as processing parameters. The results showed that the
pineapple leaf to soda ratio was the most significant parameter in cellulose extraction. A
maximum cellulose value of 40.51% was obtained at 1:5 pineapple leaf to soda ratio, 10 wt% soda
concentration, 100 ◦ C temperature, and 75 min of pulping time, contributing to a 1.6626
permittivity value. Therefore, the best extraction conditions and significant process parameters
determined in this study can be used to tailor the parameters to the desired conditions for a higher
cellulose yield and permittivity value.
1. Introduction
The booming demand for fresh fruits with increasing population density has caused an upsurge in recent consumption patterns.
Rich in vitamins and fibers, pineapple (Ananas comosus) is among the fresh fruits in continuous supply and demand across the globe.
Pineapple presents the most promising fruit demand in Malaysia’s domestic and export markets (Nazri and Pebrian, 2017), as proven
by its substantial plantation areas of more than 17,601 ha (Jenny, 2018). It is also ranked second after mango as the most important
tropical fruit, followed by papaya and avocado (Altendorf, 2019). Pineapple is the most traded tropical fruit globally. Its consumption
is projected to grow in the coming years due to rising household incomes and population growth coupled with the rapid expansion of

global markets.
Pineapples can be eaten as fresh fruit or processed to produce canned pineapple, juice, and food spreads. These processed food
products and post-pineapple harvesting lead to biomass waste such as pineapple leaves, crowns, and cores. The generation of pineapple
waste may contribute to environmental pollution as it is commonly burnt in the open air or left to rot on the ground (Zainuddin et al.,
2014). This happens due to the expensive disposal method, which comes from the high transportation costs and limited landfill
availability (Upadhyay et al., 2013). Inefficient disposal methods could further negatively affect human health since they require
time-consuming degradation of the wastes, which consequently attracts pests during the degradation process. Furthermore, the high
biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) (Ban-Koffi and Han, 1990) in the pineapple wastes further
added to the difficulties of the disposal process. Another method of disposing of pineapple waste is through vermicomposting, which
results in the rapid decomposition of pineapple pulp and peel. However, the cost-effectiveness has yet to be confirmed (Mainoo et al.,
2009). Exploiting pineapple waste into a value-added product seems to be the most practical way to manage its waste, thereby leading
to environmental friendliness. Hence, with sustainable utilization of these wastes, valuable products could be derived from pineapple
wastes.
The pineapple wastes, particularly the leaf parts, consist of highly cellulosic fibrous materials that function for extra-specific
strength and stiffness (Asim et al., 2015). These include cellulose, hemicellulose, holocellulose, and lignin (Daud et al., 2015). The
cellulose content in pineapple leaf fiber is the highest at 81.27%, followed by hemicellulose at 12.31% and 3.46% lignin (Cherian et al.,
2010). The low lignin composition in the pineapple leaf fibers is advantageous for chemical extraction since lignin functions as an
adhesive that binds cellulose and hemicellulose (Daud et al., 2015). Cellulose is primarily used in paper-making and textile
manufacturing (Asim et al., 2015; Dinh Vu et al., 2017; Mahardika et al., 2018). Its strength and stiffness properties also make it useful
as a reinforcing material (Dinh Vu et al., 2017; Mahardika et al., 2018). Additionally, cellulose has also been used as raw material to
produce biofuel (Chen et al., 2019; Rajnish et al., 2021). Currently, the use of natural fibers in dielectric material development seems to
be getting the spotlight in the materials engineering industry. Due to their non-carcinogenic and biodegradability features, natural
fibers can be exploited as an alternative to conventional dielectric materials such as alumina, mica, and Teflon, which are widely used
in electrical and electronic applications such as capacitors, insulators, printed circuit boards, and antennas.
Recognizing the potential of cellulose from natural fiber-based as an alternative method for producing new-developed dielectric
materials, several different methods are reported for cellulose extraction. These include hydrothermal, wet oxidation, organosolv,
acidic, soda (alkaline), sulfate, ammonia fiber explosion, ionic liquid pretreatment method, and soda-oxygen pulping (Dinh Vu et al.,
2017; Yue et al., 2016). Soda pulping, also known as an alkaline treatment, is a simple extraction method that requires suitable pa
rameters during the extraction process for maximum cellulose yield. The cell wall of the fibers is disrupted during the treatment
process through the hydrolyzation of acetic acid and uronic acid esters, resulting in swollen cellulose and dissolved lignin, hemicel
lulose, and silica (Dinh Vu et al., 2017). The soda pulping method is less reactive towards cellulose than other methods such as sulfate
pulping. Sulfate pulping causes the cellulose to be more reactive (Bajpai, 2018), which is undesirable. Unlike soda pulping, the other
extraction methods are energy-intensive and rather expensive, apart from chemical utilization, which requires special handling,
disposal, or production methods. Another upgraded method of soda pulping, known as soda-oxygen pulping, requires oxygen, which
further assists the extraction process. Even though requiring less energy due to the low pulping temperature requirement, this method
is complicated and involves heterogeneous reactions with various gas-liquid-solid states (Yue et al., 2016).
Several parameters are known to affect cellulose yields during the extraction process from different types of plant wastes. Melikoğlu
et al. (2019) studied the effects of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentration, temperature, and extraction time on cellulose nanocrystal
extraction from apple waste through an alkaline treatment method. Dinh Vu et al. (2017) investigated the effect of temperature and
alkaline concentration assisted with ultrasound irradiation to reduce the extraction time of cellulose from rice straw. Liu and Wang
(2016) applied an acid treatment method for the extraction of cellulose from wheat bran. The parameters involved include hydrogen
peroxide concentration, liquid-solid ratio, temperature, reaction time, and ultrasonic pretreatment power. While in the study of
cellulose extraction from sugarcane bagasse by Bektashi et al. (2020), the selection of parameters included delignification pH, sodium
chlorite (NaClO2) concentration, and solvent ratio. Nevertheless, the three most important parameters reported to be effective on the
cellulose yield during the extraction process in the alkaline treatment method are alkaline concentration, pulping time, and tem
perature (Rodsamran and Sothornvit, 2015).
An analysis of the effect of parameters on cellulose yields can be done by using a one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) analysis. OFAT
analysis can be used to determine the effect of one parameter in the cellulose extraction process by varying only one parameter while
keeping the other parameters constant (Abou-Taleb and Galal, 2018). The determination of the effect of one parameter on the process
is very necessary to fully understand the process for maximum yields. Other than that, factorial analysis (FA) has also become one of
the best alternatives to determine the number of parameters influencing variables and analyze which variables are best suited to each
other. FA is a way to condense data in many variables into fewer variables rather than focusing on many variables that may be
insignificant. Hence, the use of FA is important in analyzing the influence of several parameters that contributed to cellulose extraction
from the pineapple fibers from their leaf by evaluating all the parameters involved. Inadequate knowledge of the most important
parameters influencing cellulose extraction will be a major concern for that extraction process.
Acknowledgment of the most influential parameters for tailoring the parameters involved during the extraction process in order to
maximize cellulose yield is very important. It is crucial to fully understand the parameters that significantly affect the process. The two-
level factorial analysis (TLFA) can be applied to evaluate the most significant parameters and identify the interactive parameters
simultaneously. Although there is plenty of research work on cellulosic materials, only a few studies are available on the permittivity
(ϵ) of raw cellulose. Most of the research on pineapple leaf fibers focused on the application of cellulose in paper production and as a
reinforcing material in composites. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of processing parameters on cellulose

extraction through the soda pulping method and its corresponding permittivity value. This study also aimed to determine the most
significant parameters affecting cellulose extraction and the best extraction conditions for maximum cellulose yields. In this study,
cellulose extraction was conducted using a soda pulping method. Four parameters were chosen in this study, including pineapple leaf
to soda ratio (PL:S), soda concentration, temperature, and pulping time. The outcome of this study is expected to be able to identify the
most influential parameters on the cellulose content value. Suitable modifications of these processing parameters during the extraction
process could remarkably enhance yields, thereby increasing their permittivity value.

utilized to estimate the permittivity of the S21 (Hasan et al., 2021; Karim et al., 2014).

0.75–1 displays the well statistical model (Lin et al., 2021). The R2 for this model is 0.9971, suggesting a good fit to the experimental
data and could represent the process. The value implies that this mathematical model could describe the 99.71% variability in the
cellulose yield (Lin et al., 2021).
The main and interaction effects of the parameters on the cellulose content (%) were displayed by the Pareto chart in Fig. 4. The PL:
S (parameter A) was positioned above the Bonferroni line; meanwhile, soda concentration (parameter B) lies above the t-value limit
line, displaying the significance of both parameters towards the cellulose content. Temperature (parameter C) and pulping time
(parameter D) had no significant effect on cellulose content since the bar lies below the t-value limit. In addition, the cellulose content
was influenced by the interaction parameters between soda concentration, temperature, and pulping time (BCD). The cellulose content
increases with soda concentration, temperature, and pulping time. The positive effect was obtained when the parameter was pro
portional to the response value, as indicated by the orange-colored bar. Cheng et al. (2011) stated that when 10% of sodium hydroxide
was applied, over 90% of the xylose could be extracted from solid substrates, so a high yield of cellulose could be achieved if the
alkaline concentration was high. As the temperature increases, the yield of cellulose will also increase since the high temperature could
enhance the delignification process (Cheng et al., 2011). According to Song et al. (2016), the dissolving capacity of any substance
increases with temperature increment. More lignin from the pineapple leaves was dissolved at a high temperature, increasing the
cellulose content.
Inversely, PL:S contributed negatively towards cellulose content, signified by the blue-colored bar. Song et al. (2016) mentioned
that the solid to liquid ratio (pineapple leaves to soda ratio) plays an important role in cellulose extraction. At a higher soda volume
(PL:S at 1: 10), the cellulose content was lower than at a low soda volume (PL:S at 1:5). This finding was in agreement with Potůček
et al. (2014), who studied the soda pulping of rapeseed straw. The increase in the alkaline liquor-to-straw ratio has negatively impacted
the degree of delignification. Therefore, the liquor-to-straw ratio of 5:1 was chosen as a suitable ratio for the tested rapeseed straw
instead of the 9:1 ratio.

high enough to start the delignification process, which resulted in the lowest cellulose content at 60 ◦ C. Fig. 6(b) depicts the interaction
between pulping time and PL:S, demonstrating that 75 min of pulping time with a 1:5 PL:S resulted in good performance. There was a
significant difference when 45 min of pulping time was applied. Pulping time displayed an insignificant effect as the main parameter.
However, it plays a decisive role when interacting with other parameters. The involvement of other parameters with pulping time
would increase the cellulose content.

An optimum temperature of 110 ◦ C was discovered by Wutisatwongkul et al. (2016) since the delignification process will slow down at
low temperatures. Too high temperatures will destroy the cellulose chain. The cellulose content was the highest recorded by Lim et al.
(2019) at 140 ◦ C and started to decline shortly after the temperature increment. A similar observation by Song et al. (2016) was also
recorded where the pulp yield substantially decreased after the pulping temperature exceeded 140 ◦ C. Li et al. (2014) also discovered
that the yields of bamboo pulp declined as the temperature increased from 140 to 170 ◦ C. Therefore, we can conclude that the cellulose
chain will be slowly destroyed at a temperature of more than 140 ◦ C, as proved by the literature.
4. Conclusion
This study focused on the effect of processing parameters on cellulose extraction and the determination of the most significant
parameter in the cellulose extraction process. The study showed that PL:S was the most significant parameter, with the highest per
centage contribution. The best conditions for the cellulose extraction process obtained from TLFA were at 1:5 PL:S, 10 wt% soda
concentration, 100 ◦ C temperature, and 75 min of pulping time. At this condition, the cellulose content was up to 40.51%, with a
1.6626 permittivity value. By comparing the cellulose content values from OFAT and TLFA, it can be concluded that detailed analysis
in TLFA could improve the cellulose yield, increasing its corresponding permittivity value. The findings of this study can contribute
significantly to future studies on the optimization of processing parameters for optimum extraction conditions. It is also recommended
to investigate the effects of other parameters on the cellulose extraction process in OFAT analysis since this research only analyzes the
effect of pulping time on cellulose extraction to further understand the behavioral pattern of each processing parameter.
