Lactic acid, alcohol, and carbon dioxide are waste products of fermentation.


When making Ethyl Alcohol by fermentation when does Methyl Alcohol become a possibility and how do you avoid it?

Methyl Alcohol is not a product of fermentation so no steps are required to avoid it. You are morelikey to get annoying levels of Ethyl Acetate which is solvent smelling and tasting. Methyl Alcohol can be found in trace amounts in wine and fruit brandies but this is due to the breakdown of pectin the the cell walls of the fruit and not fermentation. Its worth noting that the treatment for Methyl Alcohol poisoning is ingestion of Ethyl Alcohol. Both are prcessed by the same enzyme which much prefers to breakdown Ethyl Alcohol. Basically they keep you drunk until all the Methyl Alcohol has been sweated/breathed/urinated out of your system. Methyl Alcohol isn't actually poisonous, BUT its metbolised by your body into chemicals that are. Any product of fermentation containing Methyl Alcohol will contain more than enough Ethyl Alcohol to protect you from it. Anyone concerned about Methyl Alcohol ingestion should read up on Aspartame. The Diet Coke you drink may exposure you to more methanol than you realise.

Are ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide the end products of the alcholholic fermentation?

Yes, in alcoholic fermentation, ethyl alcohol (ethanol) and carbon dioxide are the end products. Yeast consumes sugars and converts them into ethanol and carbon dioxide through the process of fermentation.


What is the source of carbon atoms in ethyl alcohol?

The source of carbon atoms in ethyl alcohol (ethanol) is typically from carbohydrates, such as sugars and starches, that undergo fermentation by yeast or bacteria. During fermentation, these carbohydrates are broken down into carbon dioxide and ethanol, with the carbon atoms from the carbohydrates ending up in the ethanol molecule.
