Abstract :
Due to the oxidation of CO2, SO2, and NOX, a
depletion of fossil fuels has been occurring which develops
an environmental impact as time goes by. Bioethanol has
grown in popularity not just as a chemical feedstock, an
industrial solvent, or a beverage, but also as a vehicle
fuel option in recent years. Thus, this study will introduce
the feasibility of pineapples (Ananas Comosus) as an
ethanol substrate in comparison with other documented
feedstocks in the Philippines. The researchers will
conduct an experiment that will introduce the feasibility
of pineapples with the help of data gathered from past
studies. The experiment will include major processes
which are extraction, dilution, sugar adjustment, pH
adjustment, chemical pasteurization, aerobic and
anaerobic fermentation, siphoning, distillation, and
observation days to come up with the desired data and be
able to compare it with the other bioethanol produced. In
addition to that, such guidance was sought by the
Department of Science and Technology. Thus, the
effectiveness and success of the experiment will help
eliminate the contribution of pollution with the
introduction of pineapple’s bioethanol components and
further avoid using fossil fuel. Within the comparative
analysis made, future researchers can rely on the study
made for a greener community we all aspire to have.
