Economic and Socio-environmental Model for the Production of Hydrogen and Low-Carbon Products in the Sugarcane Industry

The objective of this project was to analyze the low-carbon energy products that can be produced from sugarcane, including hydrogen, biogas, ethanol and SAF, focusing on verifying their production potential and competitiveness against other routes. For this purpose, an analysis of the existing and future market for each of these products was carried out and the OptBio computational tool was developed, capable of optimizing the use of sugarcane to obtain the highest return from the production activity.
