1.1 Introduction
Millet is a cereal grain that belongs to the Poaceae family, commonly known as the grass family. It’s widely consumed in developing countries throughout Africa and Asia. While it may look like a seed, millet’s nutritional profile is similar to that of sorghum and other cereals. Millet has gained popularity in the West because it’s gluten-free and boasts high protein, fiber, and antioxidant contents (Healthline, 2021). Bio-ethanol is ethanol derived from the process of fermentation of biological materials. This is accomplished by the action of micro organism like yeast. Since the micro organism utilizes only simple sugars, starchy and cellulosic materials are first converted into simple sugars by a process of hydrolysis before they are subjected to fermentation.
