Abstract: This study aims to analyze the potential of ethanol production by edible canna, and to measure the favorable conditions of ethanol fermentation process when using edible canna powder to produce ethanol. Research result shows that the favorable reaction time of saccharification is 30min, and the reducing sugar content shows downtrend as the saccharification time is prolonged. The most favorable reaction time of fermentation is 72h, and the ethanol yield can arrive at 30.90%.
