Abstract
Many countries are searching and developing renewable energy sources including the production of bioethanol. Carbohydrate rich plant materials are mostly used for production of bioethanol. In this investigation, enzymatically hydrolysed slurry of weed Ischaemum satapaui biomass was used as medium for ethanol fermentation. The Ischaemum satapaui biomass was enzymatically hydrolysed by Trichoderma reesei. Using DNSA method, 7.92% reducing sugars were estimated from hydrolyzed plant slurry. Plant slurry was fermented by inoculating Saccharomyces cerevisiae for conversion of sugars into ethanol. 33.44% ethanol produced from biomass was estimated by potassium dichromate method.
