What is the difference between fermentation and hydration?

Fermentation is the process of making alcohol (ethanol) by mixing sugar and yeast in a barell: sugar + yeast ----> ethanol + carbon dioxide Hydration is another process of making alcohol (ethanol) by heating water and ethene at a temperature of around 300 degrees celcius under high pressure: ethene + steam -----> ethanol One big difference between fermentation and hydration is that fermentation pproduces the bi-product cabon dioxide whereas hydration doesn't. Another difference coulkd be that the reaction of hydration happens a lot faster than that of fermentation.
