Ethanol Program in Brazil
  • 1925 First experiments with ethanol/gasoline
    blends
  • 1975 Ethanol program started after the 1st oil
    crisis
  • 1989 Leaded Gasoline forbiden.
  • 1993 E-20 to E-25 mandatory in all the country
    (33,000 gas stations)
  • 2003 Flex Fuel engines
  • 2006 80 of new vehicles are Flex (2.5
    million/year)
  • 615 million ton of CO2 avoided emissions, so far

Sugar Cane Output/Input Energy 8.2
Ethanol production in 2006 16 billion liters

Ethanol Plants
313 Ethanol Plants 1 million employees 60,000
agric. producers 5 million ha (0.6 of Br.
area) 89 New plants are being contructed

Sugar Cane Energy
  • 1 mton of Sugar Cane
  • 1.7 103 kcal 1.2 barrel of petroleum
  • Sugar cane bagasse is producing 2,500 MW
  • Breakthrough ethanol from bagasse and other
    residual biomass

Basic Biomass Composition
  • Cellulose (40-60)
  • Hemicellulose (20-40)
  • Lignin (10-25)

Hemicellulose convertion to ethanol Brazilian
Patent Petrobras/UFRJ no PI0505299-8 (11/2005)

Lignin
Coniferilic Alcohol
Cumaric Alcohol
Sinapilic Alcohol

Ethanol/Biodiesel Integration
Barralcool (Mato Grosso State) Produces 100,000
mt/year of Ethanol 50,000 mt/year of Biodiesel
15
Biodiesel Program
  • B2 mandatory at Jan/2008 (850,000 ton/year)
  • B5 mandatory at Jan/2010 (2013, originaly)
  • Now
  • 10 biodiesel plants working (500,000 ton/year)
  • 4,000 gas stations providing B2
  • Some transportation companies using B30 (More
    than 2,000 buses)
  • Projects More than 100 new biodiesel plants
  • LOW FEDERAL TAXES FOR SOCIAL PROJECTS AND POOR
    REGIONS

  • Production Costs US 240/ton of oil
  • 5,000 8,000 Liters/ha

1st Biodiesel Plant Heterogeneous
Catalyst/Residual Feedstock (Crude Palm Fatty
Acids)
Patent D. A. G. Aranda et al PI0301103-8, 2003.

AGROPALMA BIODIESEL FROM RESIDUES
25
Esterification Catalysts
  • Heterogeneous Catalyst
  • Reusable
  • Zero Soap
  • Easy to remove
  • No neutralization
  • step

Nobic Acid (CBMM)
26
HOMOmethanol
E -0,264 eV
LUMOprotonated acid
E -0,230 eV
27
HOMO and LUMO from Alcohols and Glycerides
28
Hydrolysis
H2O Lypases
Hydrolysis Industrial Process 99 conversion 3
plants in Brazil (Non-catalytic process)

Hydroesterification
Industrial Hydrolysis
Esterification of Fatty Acids (AGROPALMA)

Why dont integrate these process ???

Custos Operacionais Hidroesterificação vs
Transesterificação (50,000 mton/year)
Transesterification Hydrolysis Esterification
Chemicals (/L) 4 1
Energy (/L) 1 2
Oper.Costs (/L) 5 3
If biodiesel plant is integrated with an ethanol
plant, operating costs will be less than 2 /L.
No acidity limits in the feedstocks
