A first anhydrous ethanol pilot plant with a production capacity of 1.500 liters per day has been constructed in Thailand to carry out the research, evaluation and demonstration on the feasibility of the energy saving technology in producing fuel ethanol from fresh cassava roots. The low energy requirement process adopted for testing in this specially-designed plant consists of non-cooking saccharification of starch materials and pressurized distillation. The non-cookng process using freshly prepared fungal amylase for maceration and saccharification of cassava has proved to be unsuccessful. To saccharify cassava without external energy input will need an exceptional high enzyme dosage, thus considered impractical at large scale operation. In the modified cooking procedure, the process requires about half of quantity of process steam which is needed for satisfactory performance of a standard cooking system.
