description In this study, leftover injera waste from the southwestern parts of Ethiopia was used as a raw material for bioethanol production. The conversion of this biomass into ethanol involved processing techniques, which include hydrolysis, fermentation, and distillation. This research focuses on determining optimal parameters that are temperature, acid concentration, and hydrolyzing time in a hydrolysis stage. Using response surface analysis, the suggested model is quadratic and has three independent factors, which had significant effects on the yield of ethanol. In this analysis, the temperature and hydrolyzing time had a positive relationship with the yield of ethanol whereas acid concentration had a negative relation. The optimum yield of ethanol obtained was 79.07%. The yield optimized in g/g was 29.99, which was obtained at a temperature of 109.99°C, at an acid concentration of 1.00%, and hydrolyzing time of 49.59 minutes. For this analysis, the mathematical model equation was developed and the R2 value was 99.9% and its desirability was 0.8867. The property of ethanol was characterized by the many parameters used in different standardization. The density, viscosity, flammability, boiling points, and pH were determined as 0.803 gcm−3, 1.1 cP, 14°C, 80°C, and 6.65, respectively.
