Rancang Bangun Destilator Elektrik dan Evaluasi Kinerja Destilasi Bioetanol dari Rumput Laut (Eucheuma Cottonii)

Bioethanol from seaweed is the ethanol produced anaerobic fermentation of with assistance microorganisms. A distillation process required to separate a mixture - fermented bioproducts. The aims this research are develop distiller equipped control system temperature, evaluate output flow rate and content bioethanol (Euchemia cottonii). desired electric was developed in five main components, i.e., system, heater, distilling tube, condenser, centrifugal pump. starter Saccharomyces cerevisiae for 48 hours under room temperature. product then distilled using 6 hours; worked maintain temperature process, 800C. an average 0.024 L/h. started release at minute 253 710C. had yield 3.3% dan 39% alcohol .
