IDENTIFICATION BEST TYPE OF BANANA PEEL (GLUCOSE CONTAIN) TO PRODUCE BIOETHANOL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF BIOFUEL (E85) (original) (raw)
— Biofuel has been gaining momentum in terms of research and development. Since there are various factors such as recent rise in oil prices, support from government subsidies, and growing concern about global warming make biofuel the focal point of the public and researchers. The recent studies has come out with a new method for the production of ethanol using banana peel. Hence, this research study focuses on optimizing the ethanol production from banana peel using different type of banana peels that are widely available in Malaysia. The findings of this study can be used as a basis for comparison with other literature readings on the banana peel ethanol production having different operating conditions and parameters. For the first part of the experiment, the study will focus on the different characteristics of banana peel especially on type of banana that are widely available in Malaysia and for the second part of the experiment, production of bio gasoline from banana will be the main focus. It is expected that different parameters such as temperature and yeast concentration will affect the production of ethanol from banana which can further be optimized using the Response Surface Methodology method and finally Gas Chromatography test will be conduct to analysis the present of ethanol and it’s concentration in our samples.
