- Sweet sorghum is
rich in stalk sucrose & sugars which resemble exactly sugarcane for
its juicy stalk as has an advantage over sugarcane for alcohol
production. The sugarcane stalks has a great potential to produce
alcohol.
- Four different
sorghum genotypes, white normal, white waxy, white heterowaxy and
brown normal were used as brewing adjuncts. The white sorghum showed
the highest fermentable carbohydrate content.
- In comparison
with sugarcane as the sugarcane molasses rates have become highly
sensitive varying from Rs.3000 per tons to Rs. 7000 per tons.
Ultimately resulting in a instability in the price of alcohol. This
condition make sweet sorghum to ethanol not only competitive with
the sugarcane route, but also can act as a supplementary.
- The average
content of convertible starch and sugar in some typical grains are:
barley, 50%; maize (indian corn), 66%; oats, 50%; rye, 59%; sorghum
seed, 67%; and wheat, 65%. Alcohol yield per ton is dependent on how
completely the starches are converted to fermentable sugar, but
should be between 70-100 gallons.
- In China, sorghum
is the most important ingredient for the production of distilled
beverages, such as maotai and kaoliang.
- African sorghum
beer is a brownish-pink beverage with a fruity, sour taste. Its
alcohol content can vary between 1% and 8%. African sorghum beer is
high in protein, which contributes to foam stability, giving it a
milk-like head.
- Experts in the
opinion that the average cost of ethanol production from sweet
sorghum is around Rs. 13.25 per liter which makes it a most feasible
raw material for production of ethanol in an entire year as minimum
two crops could be taken in one year.
- India is the
second largest producer of sorghum in the world
- Worldwide the
brewing industry is becoming more competitive and constantly looking
for ways to improve beer quality and reduce manufacturing costs.
Sweet sorghum is a new potential substitute for barley which can be
used as an alternate substrate and also raise economic benefits.
- Sweet sorghum
alcohol production was estimated to generate 70 kWh of electricity
per ton of bagasse, based on the
electricity production from sugarcane bagasse.
