What is the dominant position of bioethanol in the Biofuel Market
At present, bio ethanol industry is still in the biofuels industry in Brazil occupies a dominant position, the biodiesel's share is relatively small, but in recent years Brazil bio ethanol and bio diesel industry has great development. As of 2005, Brazil sugar cane processing plant to build 320: the annual processing capacity of more than 430 million tons of sugar cane T, the production of sucrose of 30 million T, ethanol production of 18 billion L. Sugar plus 32q- industry has created about 1 million direct jobs and 6 million indirect jobs.
The main reason for the development of modern bio energy in Brazil is to ensure the national energy security and promote the sustainable development of national economy. In the global biofuels market, Brazil has advocated the development and adoption of a unified international standard for bio energy to promote the creation of a global bio energy market, thereby promoting the export of domestic fuel ethanol. In the South American biofuels market, through Brazil and South American countries signed a memorandum of understanding to promote the development of bio energy, countries in the region to cooperate in the biological energy industry, the South American countries in ethanol and biodiesel production, distribution and sale of the industrial chain and other aspects to achieve integration, to ensure that South America biofuels have a competitive advantage in the international market.Bioethanol refers to the conversion of biomass into fuel ethanol by microbial fermentation. It can be mixed with gasoline or ethanol gasoline as fuel.
Bio ethanol dominates the market for biofuels in South AmericaBrazil is the world's first production of bioethanol, so far there are more than 80 years of history. As of 2004, Brazil ethanol production has been ranked first in the world. At present, Brazil is the world's second largest ethanol production and use of the United states. From 200 to 02006, the production of bioethanol in Brazil increased from L to of 17 billion 800 million L, an increase of 68%. In 2006 Brazil accounted for 34.7% of the world's total ethanol production. Brazil mainly uses sugar cane to process bio ethanol, using castor oil, soybean and other raw materials to produce biodiesel
