The production of renewable fuels can be increased by more than 40 percent without having to cultivate a single square meter more land. So says a new international study that looked at the production of sugarcane-based biofuels in Brazil. By combining the production of ethanol from sugar cane with hydrogen, the CO2 released during ethanol production could be converted into methanol. In these times of energy scarcity, this way of producing biofuel could offer a hopeful alternative. Ethanol is a sugarcane-based biofuel that has been sold in Brazil as a car fuel for more than 50 years. “Currently, ethanol production…

Cagece will make reuse water feasible for companies that own green hydrogen plants in Ceará. The input will come from sanitary effluents from the Fortaleza Metropolitan Region. In summary, the company will offer water from treated sewage from the sewage system of Fortaleza, Caucaia and Maracanaú. As the production of hydrogen in the state will occur, according to expectations, by means of electrolysis, the alternative becomes viable. It takes 9 liters of pure water to obtain 1 kg of hydrogen. However, the input that would be discarded can be used in electrolysis, thus avoiding the waste of water from Ceará’s…
