A New Production Technology of Bioethanol

Most popular substitutes for the conventional petroleum based fuel is Bioethanol.This have a lots of advantages.Bioethanol are produced from energy crops like cereals, sugar beet and maize, from renewable sources,it can be produced in any place of the entire planet.Bioethanol is far less toxic than fossil fuels being biodegradable.
Bioethanol is produced by the hydrolysis and sugar fermentation processes that require hemicelluloses to produce sucrose sugar that is fermented into ethanol and diluted sulphuric acid or enzymes to break the cellulose.

The General Research Institute has make a new production technology of bioethanol that is safer and more environment friendly.The researchers from Japan have create a “super yeast” which is sake yeast genetically modified with koji mold genes. Instead of using chemical agents, the new method pretreats plants for fermentation with water at subcritical region or high-temperature and high-pressure water.
In a subcritical region,water becomes acidic but as temperature and pressure declines, water retains its neutral state.Researchers confirmed in the experiment that chaff and paddy straw can be used to produce ethanol.
