The need for bioenergy as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels is increasing, and the production of biofuels using bacteria is considered one of the prominent methods used in this field. This research aims to model the process of producing biofuels using bacteria and storing them using a chemical storage system. A mathematical model was used to analyse the process, where the chemical constants and optimal environmental conditions for the process were determined. The process variables were identified, including acidity level, increased production coefficient, and the effect of thermal variables on the process. The productivity and efficiency of the process of producing biofuels using bacteria were analysed, and the effect of environmental variables on this process was studied. The produced biofuels were stored in a chemical storage system, where the system was analysed, and the appropriate conditions for safely storing biofuels were determined. The data resulting from the mathematical model and the storage system were analysed and graphed. The research concluded that biofuels can be efficiently produced using bacteria and safely stored using a chemical storage system. The effect of environmental variables was analysed, and the chemical constants used in the mathematical model were optimized, resulting in a significant improvement in the efficiency of the process. The results of this research can be used to improve the process of producing biofuels and develop safer and more efficient storage systems for biofuels.
