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 ~

Ethanol/Biodiesel Integration
Barralcool (Mato Grosso State)
Produces:
100,000 mt/year of Ethanol
50,000 mt/year of Biodiesel
Biodiesel Program
 B2 mandatory at Jan/2008 (850,000 ton/year)

If biodiesel plant is integrated with an ethanol plant, operating
costs will be less than 2 ¢/L.
