Recycling of lignocellulosic agro-industrial residues waste is the key of the environmental sustainability. So, the goal of the present study was to utilize artichoke (Cynara cardunculus L.) bracts as a potential source of bio-active compounds or as a carbon source during bio-production of ethanol and to evaluate its nutritive value for livestock feeding by using in vitro gas production technique. The chemical composition, phenolic compounds, and radicals scavenging property of extracts were determined. Silage production and acid hydrolysis on conversion of lignocel-lulosic artichoke was studied. Also, the acid hydrolysate of lignocellulosic components as a carbon source was invesI tigated during bio-production of ethanol using Saccharomyces cerevisiae and simultaneous saccharification fermentation process. The obtained results revealed variation in proximate composition and mineral content among treatments of artichoke bracts used here. The blanching processing of artichoke bracts had higher total phenolic content(935.43 mg GAE/l00 gDW) and 89.64%inhibition of DPPH radical with an IC50 value of 6.23 mg/ml. The highest reducing sugar content was obtained by using sulphuric acid (3%) for 20 min at 120°C. Fermentation of the hydrolysates gave the highest ethanol yield of (10.02 g/L), which corresponds to volumetric productivity of ethanol being 1.52 g /L/h with fermentation efficiency of 97.39% and biomass of 4.64 g/L after 48 hr. The results of the present study suggest that adding sugar beet molasses to the fermentation medium enhanced production of bio-ethanol (l4.01g/L). The results also showed that the nutritional value of the artichoke bracts is similar to that of good roughage as hay in terms of metabolizable energy (8.42 MJ/kg DM), net energy (3. 15MJ/kg DM), short chain fatty acids (99.48 mM), microbial protein synthesis (76.49 g/kg) and organic matter digestibility (63.41 %).
