The results showed that the continuous ultrasound treatment improved the fermentation process by producing more ethanol in the shorter time. The most optimum treatment was obtained using 12% amplitude power for 3 hours. Reducing the sugar contents resulted in increasing the alcohol levels due to the anaerobic process that converted pyruvate to ethanol.enPresentation
