6.2.1 Manufacture of Ethanol
LO: I understand how ethanol can be manufactured.

2. Ethanol for alcoholic drinks is made by :
fermentation
yeast
C6H12O6
C2H5OH +
CO2
For industrial purposes, it is cheaper to manufacture ethanol from ethene in an reaction:
addition
Addition of water is also known as
hydration
LO: I understand how ethanol can be manufactured.

3. LO: I know some uses of ethanol

4. Ethanol can be made from in crops.
carbohydrates
So ethanol is a resource.
renewable
LO: I know some uses of ethanol

5. LO: I know how ethanol can be used as a feedstock.
Ethanol Feedstock
LO: I know how ethanol can be used as a feedstock.

6. A feedstock is a substance that can be used to make other .
products
Ethanol can be a feedstock in the manufacture of plastics.
Most plastics are made from which currently comes from crude oil.
ethene
Ethene can also be made from ethanol:
aluminium oxide +
H2O
catalyst
LO: I know how ethanol can be used as a feedstock.

7. This is a reaction: dehydration
LO: I know how ethanol can be used as a feedstock.
