Abstract

The surplus mangoes produced, which rot in the environment, become a source of pollution and lead the proliferation of flies, vectors of certain diseases. The aim of this work was to valorize mango waste by producing bioethanol. Several oenological yeast strains were used to determine their influence on kinetics and quantity of bioethanol produced. The results show that each yeast reacts differently with mango substrates. The best mango production rates obtained were 14% with Saf-Levure commercial yeast and 13% with Delta Yeast. Brix levels did not vary after 48h for all yeasts, suggesting that bioethanol production kinetics are two days.
