Use a sharp knife to cut off the hard peel on cane. Once skin is removed, cut right under and above each 'joint' and throw away joints. The fruit that is remained can be eaten when cut up into bite sized pieces. Chew/suck the juices from the cane and throw away the pulp.

How does Brazil produce ethanol?
Sugar Cane.
What are examples of ethanol?
Ethanol, CH3CH2OH, is cane sugar alcohol also called ethyl alcohol. It is the alcohol present in alcoholic beverage's.
When can you describe ethanol as a bio-fuel?
We can describe ethanol as a biofuel after the sugar has been fermented. It then gives off a greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, when burnt. However, the sugar cane absorbs the gas during photosynthesis.
How do you make ethanol gas?
Ethanol can be produced by:Anaerobic fermentation of natural sugar (beets, cane, starch) done by yeastPetrochemically by acid catalized reaction of ethene with water
How is ethanol produced in Brazil?
The production of ethanol is made from cane sugar and obeys the following: 1. Grinding cane: Sugar cane goes through a processor, this step gets the cane juice, also known as sugar cane juice that contains a high content of sucrose, whose formula is C12H22O11. 2. Production of molasses: The product obtained in step (syrup) is heated to get the molasses, which is a solution of 40% (approx.) by weight of sucrose. The brown sugar is produced when part of sucrose crystallizes. 3. Fermentation of molasses: It is now added to the molasses yeast, such as Saccharomyces, which is a type of yeast that causes the sucrose becomes ethanol. The action of enzymes is carrying out this work. After this process, we obtain the fermented mash, which already contains 12% of its total volume in ethanol. 4. Distillation of the fermented: Here the product, where the wort goes through the process of fractionation, and will lead to a solution whose composition is: 96% ethanol and 4% water. There is a name that is given in degrees, is called the alcoholic a drink. In the case of ethanol is 96 ° GL (Gay-Lussac). Ethanol is used for the manufacture of beverages and fuel. In Brazil, most ethanol production is for the fuel industry. This preference is because ethanol does not produce sulfur dioxide when burned, unlike gasoline, which pollutes the atmosphere. Important: there is great concern about the excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages. Discoveries in science reporting the dangers of drinking large quantities of alcohol, which can cause irreversible damage to the brain, liver and heart.

Why do the US stick with corn for producing Ethanol when sugar cane is by far more productive?
Because corn is far more popular than sugar cane and is grown literally almost everywhere in the US in comparison to sugar cane.
What are examples of ethanol?
Ethanol, CH3CH2OH, is cane sugar alcohol also called ethyl alcohol. It is the alcohol present in alcoholic beverage's.
What is the role played by yeast in conversion of cane sugar to ethanol?
Yeast ferment the mollasesleft after canesugaris extracted from the cane to form ethanol.or yeast helps to separate glucose and frctosefrom the molasses and ferment to produce ethanol
How many pounds of sugar equal 1 gallon of ethanol?
I AM NOT SURE ABOUT HOW MUCH SUGAR CANE IT TAKES, BUT IT TAKES A 5X7 AREA OF CORN TO PRODUCE 1 GAL OF ETHANOL.
How do you manufacture sugar cane into ethanol?
sugarcane is first converted to sugar and the waste called molasses is left,which is send to the distillery to prepare alcohol from it
