<![CDATA[The availability of crude oil as a raw material for vehicle fuel is dwindling and limited in nature. One of the renewable energies worth developing is bioethanol, which is one of the alternative fuels that can be used as a biofuel and can be processed from plants containing starch and glucose. In this research, the entire bioethanol identification system in a sugar cane drip distillation apparatus was examined. The distillation process using MQ3 and MQ135 sensors resulted in an alcohol percentage of 42% and 46%. The maximum temperature measured by a thermocouple during distillation was 88°C, while the minimum temperature recorded was 87°C. This study utilized a backpropagation artificial neural network method to identify the detected bioethanol. The architecture of the artificial neural network included 2 input nodes, 4 neuron nodes, and 2 output nodes. The training and testing results showed that the formed backpropagation was able to identify and differentiate the detection of bioethanol according to the given inputs with a success rate of 88.86% for detected bioethanol and 94.86% for undetected bioethanol..]]>
