This study carried out an exergetic analysis of a proposed ethanol production scheme in which a new process – enzymatic … hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse – is integrated into the conventional process. Seven cases were evaluated, among them a … conventional ethanol production plant without hydrolysis, a conventional plant combined with hydrolysis and hydrolysate …

Sugarcane is one of the most important industries of the Brazilian economy, and its main products are sugar and ethanol …. Most of the industrial plants produce both products in an integrated process, in which the sugarcane bagasse is a by … analysis is used to assess an integrated sugar and ethanol plant with its cogeneration system.
