Bioethanol Production from Agricultural Waste Biomass as a Renewable Bioenergy Resource in Biomaterials
Biomass is a renewable energy resource with high potential fuel source for the creation of steam and electricity, transportation fuel, medicinal manufacturing industries as well as a solvent in the laboratory. The more efficient use of biomass (derived bioethanol) is demanded to solve the global cr...

| description | Biomass is a renewable energy resource with
high potential fuel source for the creation of steam and electricity, transportation fuel, medicinal manufacturing industries as well as a solvent in the laboratory. The more efficient use of biomass (derived bioethanol) is demanded to solve the global crisis such as depletion of fossil fuel and global warming (greenhouse gas emissions). It is presently estimated to contribute
of the order 10-14% of the world energy supply. Demand
for biomass-derived ethanol could be significant if ethanol
became oxygenate of choice. Biomass derived biofuel such
as bioethanol is increasingly applied for automotive purposes.
They have, however, a relatively low efficiency in converting
solar energy into automotive power. Manufacturers of proprietary
medicines defended the use of ethanol by claiming
that it was added to prevent their products from spoiling and
freezing. In this study we mentioned the biomass preparation
and fermentation techniques for bioethanol production using
yeast (e.g. Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and reviewed results from
different agricultural waste biomass (algae, fruit and fish,
chicken). We found fruit (pineapple) biomass was higher and
easier to extract than algae and fish biomass. |
