ABSTRACT
Substandard and waste mango (Mangifera indica) variety Dussehri was utilized for ethanol fermentation by Saccharomyces Cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus strain montrachet (@ 15% v/v).
Ethanol 9.0% v/v was produced from the substrate with initial TSS of 20.0° B (pH 5.0). The optimum fermentation period was 96 hours at 30° C. Potassium metabisulphite (KMS @ 50 ppm) prevented contamination.
Chemical analysis and sensory evaluation have classified the mango wine as of commercially outstanding quality. Aqueous ethanol was dehydrated with Calcium chloride (@18 gm/100 ml) yielding 99.5% ethyl alcohol which can be used as liquid fuel.
