• Abstract:

  The energy generation by the

  sugar-energy sector occurs simultaneously

  in the modalities: process heat, mechanical

  energy, electric energy for own consumption

  and excess, predominantly from sugarcane

  bagasse. It is intended the technological and

  economic aspects systemic approach, in order

  to contribute to the bioenergy definitive insertion,

  coming from the sugar-energy sector, as a

  great relevance complementary alternative, to

  support the Brazilian energy matrix. Considering

  that the 68 bar and 100 bar units yield were

  modeled at 38.97% and 42.80%, no doubt the

  steam generator system replacement could

  be an extreme importance procedure from

  the technical and economical view point, for

  increasing efficiency and, consequently, raising

  the revenues with the surplus electric energy

  generation, in the 25.63% to order 86,499 MWh

  / crop, equivalent to 15.57 million Reais, to a

  MWh traded at CCEE / ANEEL at R$ 180.00,

  corresponding to a R$ 15.57 million value to be

  added, for a 212.80 tons sugarcane bagasse

  processing.
