This work was proposed to determine of the pectinase concentration in process of the ethanol production by cassava fibrous waste. The results indicated that minimal concentration of pectinase was 8Kg/t fibre and 89.4% starch was hydrolyzed in process. The treatment without pectinase 72.5% of starch was hydrolyzed. The final residues may be used as high-fiber food product.
