In light of its advantages‚ world production of ethanol has increased dramatically in recent years. As grain will continue to be used for biofuel production‚ it is appropriate that we should seek to maximize the yield of ethanol. One way to do this is to study the effects of various factors on the rate of fermentation. Ethanol and CO 2 are produced

Methods of production Production methods fall into three main categories; however‚ all production methods can be assisted with CAM and CAD equipment (Computer Aided Manufacture and Computer Aided Design – respectively). 1. Job Production and Prototype Production Job Production is used when a product is produced with the labor of one or few workers and is scarcely used for bulk and large scale production. It is mainly used for one-off products or prototypes‚ as it is inefficient; however‚ quality

pollinating them. By 1898‚ Madagascar‚ Réunion‚ and the Comoros Islands produced 200 metric tons of vanilla beans‚ about 80% of world production. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation‚ Madagascar is currently responsible for the vast majority of the world’s Bourbon vanilla production[12] and 58% of the world total vanilla fruit production. The market price of vanilla rose dramatically in the late 1970s after a tropical cyclone ravaged key croplands. Prices remained high
