The book explores the existing biorefinery platforms that can be used to convert sugarcane to new high value added products. It also addresses one of today's most controversial issues involving energy cane, in addition to the dilemma "sugar cane vs. food vs. the environment", adding even more value in a culture that is already a symbol of case study around the world.
Focusing on the chemical composition of sugarcane, and the production and processes that optimize it for either agricultural or energy use, the book is designed to provide practical insights for current application and inspire the further exploration of options for balancing food and fuel demands.
- Presents the productive chain of sugarcane and its implications on food production and the environment
- Includes discussions on the evolution of the sustainable development of the sugar-energy sector
- Contextualizes and premises for the technological road mapping of energy-cane
- Provides information on new technologies in the sugar-energy sector
Researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, professionals from the sugarcane and chemical industry, as well as people interested in the subject of sugarcane biorefinery
