Sugarcane ethanol benefits mapped out for Latin America
Publicado em 02 janeiro 2019Producing ethanol from sugarcane could reduce fossil fuel imports in Latin American countries other than Brazil, where sugarcane is already a big part of the energy mix. According to a study that analysed the potential of sugarcane as a cleaner energy source in the region, bagasse — the pulp left after juice is extracted from sugarcane — can also improve electricity access in many countries. Brazilian and Colombian researchers evaluated the potential benefits of this crop for the energy [...]ver notícia -
