Abstract


The declining oil production stemming from decreasing raw material reserves has clashes with rising demands and has created a supply-demand gap in the overall energy sector. Excessive consumption of fossil fuel oil exacerbates environmental issues, potentially leading to global climate change and increased natural disasters. Consequently, there are efforts in looking for alternate renewable fuel sources. The study included physical pre-treatment, natural hydrolysis, natural fermentation, fermentation of pineapple waste juice using bakery yeast, and subsequent distillation. The pineapple wastes produced juice with 12.67 °Brix and pH range of 3.16-3.18. The present study reports bioethanol production from pineapple waste mixed with bakery yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) and pineapple wastes juice without bakery yeast, revealing that the yeast-amended mixture yielded bioethanol with alcohol content of 45 % compared to 36 % from pineapple juice alone. Re-distillation enhanced bioethanol content from 25 % - 45 %-85 % which aligns well with E85 fuel specifications, indicating bioethanol's suitability as fuel. Thus, bioethanol derived from pineapple fruit wastes presents a promising renewable energy solution. This study investigates the production of bioethanol from pineapple waste juice by comparing two methods: one using bakery yeast and the other without yeast. Both methods are conducted at room temperature to evaluate their efficiency and effectiveness in converting pineapple waste juice into bioethanol.
