After aerobic respiration, 38 ATP molecules are produced from the consumption of one glucose molecule (but two of these ATP molecules are consumed by glycolysis). The net gain of the process is then 36 ATP molecules per glucose molecule.
In yeast, the waste products are ethanol and carbon dioxide. This type of fermentation is known as alcoholic or ethanol fermentation. The ATP generated in this process is made by substrate-level phosphorylation, which does not require oxygen. Fermentation is less efficient at using the energy from glucose: only 2 ATP are produced per glucose, compared to the 38 ATP per glucose nominally produced by aerobic respiration. This is because the waste products of fermentation still contain chemical potential energy that can be released by oxidation.
