Mengkudu is a plant that has many advantages and carbohydrate content as 51,67%. Coconut fiber has high enough cellulose content as 43,44%, with high carbohydrate content and high cellulose content they can be utilized as basic ingredient in the making of bioethanol. The purpose of this research is to determine the best condition in the process of making bioethanol from them. Bioethanol was made by fermentation which was helped by bactery, that was Saccaromyches cerevisae or often known as bread yeast. The results of this research were obtained fermentation time and volume of the stater used in making bioethanol from mengkudui fruit in order to get the best content bioetanol is in 60 hours using a stater volume of 10% which produces 6.26% bioethanol, while for the manufacture of bioethanol from waste Coconut coir is at 72 hours using a 6 gr volume of starch which produces bioethanol 13.80%.

This situation causes enough starch as 51,67 gr [8]. The most important part fossil fuel reserves such as petroleum for national reserves of the linocellulosic is cellulose wrapped in lignin with a is predicted to only remain available for the next 23 years strong bond [10] the compositions od coconut fiber and in 2007. So in 2013 our petroleum reserves remain 17 mengkudu are as follows. This is a chemical composition years from now [2]. Therefore, it needs an alternative of fiber coconut. material as a substitute of world oil in the making of The purpose of this research is to determine the fuel. Bioethanol is one good alternative and can be used as a fuel in order to solve energy problem right now. best condition in the process of making ethanol using Bioethanol production in various countries has been car- mengkudu and coconut fiber waste with by considering ried out using raw materials derived from agricultural and fermentation time variety and stater volume in order to plantation products [3]. Bioethanol used as fuel in the form produce good bioethanol. Ethanol or ethyl alcohol is a of a mixture of bioethanol with besin is bioethanol with chemical found in alcoholic or alcoholic beverages, this 99.5% or more ethanol content or bioethanol [5].

Flow Diagram of making a Bioethanol from coconut ethanol can also be used as a fuel for motor vehicles; fiber waste petroleum substitutes [11]. The making of ethanol from coconut fiber has 3 phases [12]: RESEARCH ARTICLE The making of Mengkudu has 3 phases: 1. Hydrolisis phase 2. Flow Diagram of making a Bioethanol from Mengkudu 2. Alcohol fermentation process 3. Result analysis. In previous research [13] got the result in making of bioethanol using fermentation, role of microorganism is very important and usually microorganism that is used to fermentation has some requirements as follows: 1. It has the ability to ferment the appropriate carbohy- drate fast 2. It tends to form flacculation and sedimentation 3. It has stable genetic (not easily mutated) 4. It sensitives on high alcohol (between 14–15%) 5. It has fast regenerate character. Then, previous research [14] in purification of cellulose needed alkali pre- treatment using NaOH with the 1:4 ratio of material ripe solvent and heated up for 2 hours with 100 C. Table II.

Moreover, the decreased of bioethanol level on at 10% and 6 gr, yet at 12% stater level and 7 gr there was fermentation time for 72 hours of mengkudu and 80 hours decreased caused of the total of microbes became more of coconut fiber waste caused by the total of microbes while nutrient became less. more decreased that would went to death phase because In Figure 3 above, the graph shows the %bioethanol bioethanol that was produced became more while nutri- yield from coconut fiber at the maximum point at ent became less.
