  World is threaten to energy crisis which has advances research in bioenergy and specifically development of biofuels to replace petroleum products have increased the use of microbial enzyme like cellulases and xylanases as well as amylases for generation of reducing sugars for their conversion into bioethanol. Extensive research has been carried out in this view but alkaline cellulase production and molecular characterization is not studied in detail so far, this study will aid to achieve it. Optimization of fermentation parameters for production of cellulase was evaluated with the help of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) a statistical design, initial pH (9), moisture ratio (1:1) and incubation time (72 h) (run no.4) were found to be ideal parameters for optimum production of cellulase, substrate Jatropha seed cake without any pre-treatment was found to be an ideal source for cellul..
