source is ethanol (C2H5OH). It is an alcohol fuel manufactured by fermentation and distillation of crops that are high with starch and sugar‚ such as grains‚ sugarcane (most commonly used)‚ corn‚ and fruit. Other names for ethanol are ethyl alcohol‚ drinking alcohol‚ and grain alcohol. It can also be made from trees‚ grasses‚ woods‚ and plant waste. It is a colourless‚ flammable liquid that is categorized under bio-fuel. Brazil is the largest suppler and consumer of ethanol in the world. Ethanol functions

Alcohol based fuels are used as alternatives to fuels that come entirely from non-renewable resources. The most common of these are ethanol and methanol. These two substances have a few similarities‚ but also significant differences. The similarities are so few that they can be listed concisely; just appearance and smell are similar for these two chemicals. If an individual were presented with samples of each of these chemicals‚ they would have to ignite it or consume it in order to tell the

Rabang‚ Maika I. 2B-Medical Technology‚ Faculty of Pharmacy‚ University of Santo Tomas ABSTRACT Distillation is a technique in separating two liquid components. There are two types of distillation used in this experiment known as the simple and fractional distillation. The objective of this experiment was to be able to determine the amount of Ethanol in the given

entitled “Ethanol Production from Waste Banana Peelings” aims to produce an alternative way in producing energy. Banana chips‚ banana con hielo‚ banana cue and other Filipino delicacies made up of banana are some of our favorite foods. But after the consumption of the flesh‚ we are just throwing out the peelings as garbage. Our country today is facing two major problems‚ energy crisis and proper waste disposal. This study used waste banana peelings to produce amount of ethanol.

Background of the Study Ethanol is a clean-burning‚ high-octane fuel and is made from a renewable resource made from American corn and different cellulosic materials. Ethanol has many uses. It can be used as a biofuel (which reduces greenhouse effect) and it can be used for making different materials like perfumes and explosives. It is also called ethyl alcohol. Ethanol can be produced by banana peelings but we don’t know which peeling of different banana species can produce more ethanol. The peelings of

percentage content of ethanol in 3 samples (spirit‚ wine and a beer). We would be comparing the concentration of ethanol to that of 25%propanol which would act as an internal standard. Method To set up the standards for a calibration curve we would make solutions of different concentrations of ethanol. Using a 25cm3 volumetric flask we would put 10cm3 of 25% Propanol into each one which would act as an internal standard. We would then add differing amounts of ethanol (0.5 cm3‚ 1.0cm3‚ 2.0cm3and

| Ethanol Fuel Production from Banana Waste Peelings | CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Due to the modernization to our country‚ there were new things that are added in the basic necessities of an individual‚ one of this is fuel. Since fuel can be afford in a high price‚ some people afford fuel. To resolve this problem‚ we need to find abundant and renewable source of fuel that is low cost. The project entitled “ETHANOL FUEL from BANANA PEELINGS” can help to solve this problem. This project will
