Granbio Starts Cellulosic Ethanol Production At 21 Million Gallon Plant In Alagoas Brazil

Granbio Starts Cellulosic Ethanol Production At 21 Million Gallon Plant In Alagoas Brazil
by Jim String (Biofuels Hasty) World's largest-known cellulosic ethanol project to invite comes online in Brazil in convey time.

In Brazil, GranBio has initiated production at the cap commercial-scale plant for second-generation ethanol in the Southern Hemisphere. The Bioflex 1, unit built in S~ao Miguel dos Campos, Alagoas, has an key production license of 82 million liters of ethanol per time (21.6 million US gallons).

The 2G ethanol twisted by GranBio is the cleanest fuel twisted on a commercial scale in the world in carbon darkness - 7.55 gCO2/MJ, as valid by the Air Finances Power in California. No other fuel twisted on a large scale is split for the environment and reversing toughen incarnation than that of GranBio, the cap producer of 2G ethanol to footing the carbon trail conceded by the American task.

GranBio developed a system to crop, observe and process 400,000 metric heaps of straw per time

GranBio and Caet'e, from the peal Carlos Lyra, fashioned a detached house for the integrated production of plunder and electricity. Installed subsequently to Bioflex 1, the co-generation system is fed by sugarcane bagasse and lignin - a byproduct of producing second-generation ethanol. This is an unprecedented bioenergy promise in Brazil, the cap time lignin is organism used to this purpose in the sugar-based alcohol industry.

As such, onwards assembly the desires of the two plants, the cistern behest generate right electricity on judge of 135,000 MWh/year - a load to power a city of 300,000 fill Elucidate Chief (includes many photos)
