Abstract:
This study involves an analysis into Bio-ethanol production from agricultural wastes. Agricultural wastes like bagasse, rice straw waste, wheat straw waste, vegetable wastes etc. were used to produce ethanol by different Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. Initially the wastes were subjected to a pretreatment process using acid hydrolysis to remove lignin which is not acted upon by cellulosic enzymes. Ethanolic fermentation was done using Saccharomyces cerevisiae for 8 days and the ethanol yield and total reducing sugar were determined. From the results it was seen that the Rice straw waste fermentation media gave maximum percentage Bioethanol yield of 11.38% and 18.84% when two different strains of indigenous Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used for fermentation. These findings show very clearly that Bioethanol can be produced from the agricultural wastes by a cost effective and efficient method.
