Summary

In ethanol fermentation. One glucose molecule breaks down into two pyruvates via glycolysis (1). The energy from these exothermic reactions is used to bind inorganic phosphates to ADP and convert NAD+ to NADH. The two pyruvates are then broken down into two Acetaldehyde and give off two CO2 as a waste product (2). The two Acetaldehydes are then reduced to two ethanol, and NADH is oxidized back into NAD+ (3).
