Abstract: Enzyme-producing properties among hyperthermia aerobic microorganisms such as Sporotrichum thermophilic and Aspergillus sp. were studied and compared with Trichoderma sp. The cellulase, xylanase and CMCase activities were analyzed after solid fermentation. Results indicated that S. thermophilic had the highest xylanase activity(164.4 U/g); T. sp. had the highest cellulase (12.1 U/g) and CMCase activities (77.2 U/g) among test strains, A. sp. and S. thermophilic had high CMCase and cellulase activities among test strains. Thus A. sp. and S. thermophilic are applicable in biodegradation of lignocellulose.

Key words: microbe, Aspergillus sp., biodegradation, cellulase
