Ethanol from Banana Stem Project

The project aims to produce ethanol from banana stems using yeast bacteria. The process involves collecting banana stems after cultivation, grinding them, adding yeast, fermenting the mixture, and distilling it to obtain ethanol. The objectives are to reduce fossil fuel usage, use ethanol as an alternative fuel, produce cheap and environmentally friendly fuel.

Production of ethanol from banana stem using yeast


Title of the project
bacteria i.e. (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)

1) Ethanol can be produced from banana stem using


(Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ( also known as Bakers
yeast). 2) After
cultivation of bananas, the leftover stem / biomass
Details of the project
can be used in production of ethanol. 3)
Ethanol is a biofuel it is alternate source of fuel.
4) In India 10% ethanol in petrol is a average
blending rate.

The project aims to answer- 1) Over population


gives rise to overexplotation of fossil fuels.
The problems or the 2) Using bioethanol
question project aims to can reduce use of fossil fuel. 3)Bioethanol is iess
answer harmful than fossil fuel for environment.
4) It contain oxygen bond so it
doesn’t make that much popullation.

Following are steps- 1) Collecting banana stem from


cultivated field. 2) Using
grinder grind the stem finally. 3) Add
Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the mixture. 4) Mix
Describe what will be done well and leave the mixture in fermenter for
in the project fermentation. 5)
Using distillation process ethanol is obtained from
fermented mixture.
Glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide
C6H12O6(aq) →2C2H5OH(aq) + 2CO2(aq)
1) To reduce overexplotations of fossil fuels. 2)
Use ethanol as alternative source of fuel. 3)
Project objectives
Ethanol is cheap than other fuel. 4) It is
less harmful for environment than fossil fuel.

Possible outcomes of the Using biomass production of biomass which is cheap


project and environment friendly.

Proposed starting date 1-Sep-23
