Abstract

It is presents references above the cogeneration of electric power within the vapor resulting from she burns of cane bagasse. For very long time this byproduct was considerate like a problem about to the middle environment but, actually, is, more and more, related to from the principal alternatives for solution energetic Brazilian, what already she foresees scarcity of electric power about to the neighbors years. The studies annotation what the actual capacity of generation of electric power of the country she won't go support the growth economic, beyond from existence of problems into the climate, what drought severes can provoke a new risk of ration, the one to could cause losses into the sector industry. The Brazil, however, account with only a big expansion of the sucroalcooleiro sector, and this already it shoots of capacity of generation of agroenergy. According to some studies, the sector can you furnish but also 15% from energetic demand of the country, overtaking the equivalent the double of generation from Itaipu hydroelectric. It was analyzed that the private sector need of aid technical and financial for the creation of these termoelétricas.
