Ethanol is prepared on large scale from ethene by the addition of water vapour to it in the presence of catalysts.

Tungsten oxide at high pressure and temperature.

 ch_{2} =  ch_{2} +  h_{2} o =  >  ch_{3} ch_{2}oh

Grain such as corn ,wheat ,barley are common sources for ethanol.

Therefore,it is also called grain alcohol

cooking \: grain + sprouted \: barley \:  =  > glucose =  > ethanol +  co_{2}
