Abstract: Bioethanol
is considered as an important renewable fuel to partly replace fossil-derived
fuels. Fermentation of sugar-based raw materials is refered to as first
generation bioethanol, whereas the use of lignocellulosic raw materials is
commonly called second generation bioethanol. The third generation of algal
bioethanol is at an early stage of investigation. Bioethanol is the most
valuable bio energy source which produced by the fermentation of carbohydrate
containing substrates using various microorganisms. Present study deals with
the bioethanol production from sal seeds and comparative analysis of bioethanol
production by two different yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae MTCC 4780 and
Pichia kudriavzevii. Different parameters temperature and pH were also
optimized. It was observed that both yeasts produced maximum bioethanol at 30
Cand pH 5. In comparison to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia kudriavzevii was
more supported the production of biocthanol.
