Ethanol production from corn grain is taken a point of convergence as an alternative fuel development recently. Herein, we studied the production of ethanol from Zea maize L with designing the production plant and optimization process, respectively. As an additional source, the maize grains are processed to a fine flour and then exposed to liquefaction, where the temperature was maintained at 85 ° C for 4 hours. Furthermore, it was exposed to saccharification for 4 hours at 50°C with subsequent refining. The ethanol yield acquired from the process was observed to be 10.6, with the purity of 95%. The distinctive ethanol properties are likewise evaluated with the specific gravity, relative thickness and the refractive index were 0.79, 0.85, and 1.4, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
