INTEGRATED BIODIESEL PRODUCTION IN BARRALCOOL SUGAR AND ALCOHOL MILL

Olivério, José Luiz ; Barreira, Sérgio Tamassia ; Rangel, Silvio Cezar Pereira

Resumo:

In Brazil in 1975, the National Alcohol Program – Proálcool – started, to represent the beginning of a new concept in the sugarcane sector: the production of renewable energy from sugarcane. Ethanol production has brought on a huge growth of the industry, while mills experienced important evolution in capacity, overall yields, and optimum use of sugarcane energy, products and by-products (OLIVÉRIO, 2002). At the end of the Program, some industry entrepreneurs enhanced the vision of the business by understanding that the mill, in its agricultural (+) industrial integration, is not a sugar and alcohol producing unit only, but an energy-and-food producing centre (OLIVÉRIO, 2002, 2006), as shown in Figure 1. It must be emphasized that the representation is simplified, since today the number of products derived from agricultural and industrial activities is much higher.
