The primary objective of this project is to produce ethanol from waste alcohol, which can be found in alcohol industries here in Cyprus, by using the method of solar fractional distillation. The idea of ethanol production is widely spread over the technologically improved countries and researches are already in progress to find a way of using the product ethanol in many cases. The most common case in which ethanol could be used for many reasons explained later is "fuel ethanol", which as it is obvious is about ethanol used in our automobiles.
The initial idea of this project was established by Mr. Demetris Lordos, and with the cooperation with the project supervisor Dr. Nicos Angastiniotis the experiments on ethanol production first took place in Limassol and then continued in other places such as Carlsberg's chemistry. The experiments are focusing not much in the theory of solar distillation, but most are concentrated on finding a way of correct distillation, and improvements that can be made in order to have better results.
So, in order to perform the experiments we moved at Lordo's company for the first experiments on pure solar distillation, and then we moved to Carlsberg's breweries for some more scientific experiments. The whole procedure of the experiments done are in the next pages giving much information on ethanol, ways of distillation and our experiments on solar ethanol distillation.
