Ethanol

Fuel genuinely national, the ethanol produced in the country offers various direct and indirect benefits to the entire Brazilian population.

Supplies part of the fleet of vehicles in the country, showing a better performance for engines and lower rates of pollution of the atmosphere at a price below that of gasoline.

Because of the ethanol, are generated more than a million jobs across the country in different sectors: plantations of sugar cane, power plants, distilleries, distributors and put fuel.

All the capital that moves fuel from its production to final consumption, is in the country. The agroenergy sector contributes nearly 3% for the formation of the national GDP. The money raised taxes also accrue in improvements such as schools, hospitals, sanitation, safety, in addition to the progress of science and technology.

Remember that the more the ethanol is used by Brazilians, the greater the progress of our country.

Two types of ethanol are produced in the plant: the Carburante hydrated and the Anhydrous Carburante. They are the result of the fermentation and distillation of the broth of sugar cane.

The hydrated Carburante is used as fuel in part of the fleet of vehicles in Brazil. Already the Anhydrous Carburante replacing methyl post of lead in gasoline. He works as an additive to fuels, with the advantage of being less polluting.
