00:00Varanasi IIT-BHU has achieved great success in making Javik ethanol.

00:04Scientists of Varanasi IIT-BHU have done research on the process of making Javik ethanol with the help of potato peels.

00:11In this research, the use of potato peels has been done in the form of raw material,

00:16through which Javik ethanol is being made.

00:19This research is not only a great success in the field of Javik ethanol,

00:24but it is also a big step in the dream of becoming India's self-reliant.

00:28The research was done by Dr. Abhishek and his team,

00:32assistant professors of the biochemical engineering department of IIT-BHU.

00:37Javik ethanol is a biofuel, which acts as an alternative to clean and durable energy

00:42to reduce the dependence on raw oil in the country.

00:48Dr. Abhishek told us that we have done research on how to make Jeevasma

00:54with the help of potato peels, and our students have also received awards for this research.

01:01The research started by collecting the potato peel waste from the hostel mess.

01:07Because I saw that potato peel waste was generated in a very large amount.

01:11So for that, we collected the potato peel waste from there.

01:15After drying it in the oven, we grinded it and converted it into powder form,

01:21which we used in the further process, which is our fermentation process.

01:25In this, we took the substrate potato peel waste and with the help of some microbes,

01:29we converted it, which produced bioethanol.

01:33For this, we have used nanodrops for analysis and performed biochemical assays.

01:38We also did enzymatic analysis.

01:41But the basic step in this is the fermentation process, which is its main step,

01:46which we have done on a lab scale in serum bottles for now.

01:49The benefit of this bioethanol is that we can use it for our next generation fumes

01:55and it will also help in blending.
