Abstract
⺠The process design of a bioethanol production plant from carob pod is carried out and an economic analysis is made. ⺠Total fixed capital investment estimated for the process is similar to that reported for traditional feedstocks. ⺠Ethanol production cost for the proposed process is also similar to that reported for traditional feedstocks. ⺠Feedstock prices lower than 0.188â¬/kg makes the process profitable.
