Cassava can be processed into all sorts, including ethanol that can be updated so that environmentally friendly, “said Head of the Economics Society National Committee of Indonesia (KNMI) Endy Priyatna, in Jakarta
Then how the process of producing ethanol content in the fuel into the vehicle? The first stage is the process of stripping and grinding cassava, filtering, up to the stirring. Then the pulp mill results is added an enzyme, then inserted into the heat exchanger tank.
After that, go into the fermentation process using yeast bread. Finally, the tube is inserted into the fermentation distillation until eventually produce bioethanol. Bioethanol or who later called this biopremium which later became the driving engines of motor vehicles.
However, to facilitate the performance of this fuel made from cassava, vehicles still need a tool that functions as a converter. ”If you do not use the converter, be gassed and hold the vehicle, with the use of this particular artificial converter more quickly so the combustion process,” said Endy told reporters.
Converter was placed on the fuel filter to the engine. ”The plan of this converter will be sold at a price of Rp 120,000,” he said. Endy said, the use of converters are also backed by the lack of technological support for biopremium combustion engine is in standard right now.
The use of cassava as a vehicle fuel is the result of the discovery of S Adibrata, who then assisted the production process by the KNMI. Research has been conducted for four years and has been tested to 1200 vehicles, with satisfactory results.
