Zusammenfassung:The method for producing bioethanol from dates includes manufacturing a suitable substrate for bioethanol from dates and fermenting the date substrate to produce bioethanol. The date substrate may be produced by de-pitting date fruits, heating the flesh with water to produce a mixture, filter pressing the mixture to produce a juice, and concentrated by vacuum drying to produce a date substrate. The date substrate may then be fermented in either a batch or a fed-batch culture. The fermentation may be performed with a thermophilic yeast, such K. marxianus. In an alternative embodiment the date substrate may be a date fruit extract.
