Incontrast to cane sugar juice, molasses is stable on storage and generallydiluted to 12-14% concentration before fermentation.

Technical Aspects: Method of manufacture

The Molasses has been diluted up to the desired concentrations,sometimes it is 12% wt/vol. It is then sent to intermediate tanks from the mainstorage tanks. Cane sugar contains 160kg(approx) of fermentable sugar from 1ton of cane. 1 ton of cane produce 600kg(approx)of juice. It may vary fromplace to place. Pre-diluted sugar is sterilized, ph adjusted acidic(4.7-4.8%),temperature 35⁰ C, yeast content 10gms / per litr, time ofconversion of the sugar to wort (fermented sugar) contains about 6%-10% ethanolis fractioned into three partitions a) acetalhyde, b) Rectified Spirit, whichis 95% ethanol(approx) and 3) final cut contains Propylalcohol, Butyl Alcohol,Amyl alcohol.

Finally rectified Spirit which contains 93-95% ethanol is furtherdistilled to make absolute alcohol which contains no water is used as fuelethanol.

Now a days GOVT OF INDIA allowed that 5% fuel ethanol may beadministered with 95% Petrol and used as motor fuel.
