The flowchart illustrates the process by which ethanol fuel is produced from corn.
Overall
, the process is a linear, multi-stage procedure that begins with the preparation of the raw material and culminates in the distribution of the finished fuel. It is Linking Words
also
notable that water is introduced during the thermal treatment stage, Linking Words
while
a solid by-product is extracted prior to purification.
At the outset, harvested corn undergoes storage before being milled into finer particles. The resulting material is Linking Words
then
subjected to a four-hour cooking process, during which water is added to facilitate the breakdown of its components. Linking Words

, the mixture is left to ferment for 48 hours, allowing chemical conversion to take place.

Subsequently
, the fermented substance is separated into liquid and solid fractions, with the latter removed as a residual by-product. The liquid component Linking Words
then
undergoes a five-hour purification stage to yield ethanol of usable quality. In the final phase, the refined fuel is stored and ultimately transported for end use.Linking Words
