Energy recovery from sugarcane biomass residues: Challenges and opportunities of bio-oil production in the light of second generation biofuels

Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy (2009)

Walfrido Alonso-Pippo C.A. Luengo Felix Fonseca Felfli Pietro Garzone Giacinto Cornacchia

The lack of an alternative energy carrier to electricity with storage capability for use in off-season has to date been an unsolvable question for the sugar agroindustry. The improvement in cogeneration capacity via implementation of condensing extraction steam turbines or biomass integrated gasifier/gas turbine combined cycle and the barriers for their implementation were analyzed. The introduction of a fast pyrolysis (3 tons/h) module (FPM3) as a solution for off-season energy demand in the sugarcane agroindustry was also analyzed. The production cost of 1 ton of bio-oil for FPM3 condition was calculated at 87 USD/ton of bio-oil (0.104 USD/l of bio-oil). The economic feasibility of the FPM3 was estimated, comparing the added values for two alternatives: first alternative regarding the sugar and bioethanol simultaneous production (first generation biofuel production) and second alternative regarding the sugar and bio-oil simultaneous production (second generation biofuel production). Although the highest added value figure for a ton of sugarcane (49.30 USD) was gotten by the second alternative, the bioethanol production for cars fuel continues to be most attractive business option because of large fuel ethanol market demand.

Technical and Marketing Criteria for the Development of Fast Pyrolysis Technologies

IGI Global eBooks (2015)

Juan Miguel Mesa-Pérez Felix Fonseca Felfli

The management of projects regarding the use of biomass requires human resources with specific technical knowledge and tools to assess the real potential of raw materials within one or several production chains. Storage and transportation logistics, conservation and handling of the biomass, available technologies of transformation, and consumer market for the products are critical stages in the management process. The following chapter will present the technical, financial, and market criteria for managing production chains that use biomass as raw material in processes of fast pyrolysis.
