The sensible sources (namely; corn, wheat, barley, oat and rye) and molasses (procured from the local market of Rawalpindi), following enzymatic hydrolysis were subjected to fermentation to produce high fiber protein (HFP) and liquid protein as a by-product. The former can be used for human consumption and the later was considered fit for animal feed. Carbon dioxide gas produced during fermentation can be used as gas in beverages or converted into dry ice. Malt husk (spent grain) left behind as a result of waste has utilization for poultry and dairy farm. Ethanol produced was converted into high power alcohol and a comparison of its characteristics with those of natural fuels was made. The high power alcohol was transformed into high power fuel (jellified material) by the interaction with potassium salts of the isopropylidene derivatives of carbohydrates. The potassium salt of the isopropylidene derivative of carbohydrate was prepared in two stages: first, derivative of carbohydrates was synthesized by the interaction of carbohydrates with acetone. The derivative so produced was further treated with chlorosulphonic acid in the presence of potassium carbonate, to produce potassium salt of the derivative of carbohydrates. The fermentation mash may be consumed as a non-alcoholic drink after addition of flavor.
