arrives in Brazil biodiesel derived from algae

In Brazil, biodiesel made from soybeans will be added to that obtained from microscopic algae fed by discarding the processing of sugar cane.

agro Although the National Plan for 2006-2011 providing for the development of other agricultural sources - such as forest biomass and waste from agriculture and farms - the two leading energy fuel source agricultural product in Brazil are currently using soy biodiesel and ethanol derived from sugar cane. The production of biodiesel using crops such as castor, sunflower and palm under the right of family farming has not yet taken hold, so most of the biodiesel produced in Brazil continues to be derived from soybeans, where the market is controlled by multinationals and the cultivation of which is controlled by large landowners.

Recently, the University of Sao Carlos Brazil has developed the project for the production of biofuel from algae fed by discarding the distillation of sugar cane to produce sugar and ethanol: such substances, highly toxic pollutants, are made mineral salts and organic compounds are difficult to degrade in the environment, but highly nutritious for microorganisms such as algae, in particular, a type of microalgae rich in fat molecules can easily be converted into bio-fuel for vehicles.

At the industry level, this project will be implemented by Algae Biotechnology, the company has patented worldwide, and will be funded by state bank BNDES, with 3.2 million real.

Brazil has all the necessary conditions to take a leadership role in world production of biodiesel: the country has a long experience in the production of ethanol, favorable climatic conditions, a vast expanse of farmland and the competitiveness of its agricultural sector. Moreover, the availability of arable land in Brazil provides an opportunity to be not only a major producer of biofuels, one of the largest exporters of food products, and finally, the production of feedstock for the production of energy added to the food production, can maximize the profits of farmers and benefits to society.
