Brazil Power Generation Utilizing Bagasse Boiler At The Sugarcane Mills

2015-12-28

Energy generation with sugarcane bagasse has the potential to supply a substantial amount of electricity in Brazil. However, this potential has not been developed to date. There is the need to develop the necessary technology (strategy and equipment) to implement waste recovery and its use as supplementary fuel to bagasse at sugarcane mills, at attractive cost and without hindering mill operations. If this can be done, it will be possible to produce electric energy year round with renewable fuel, selling guaranteed electricity at a profitable basis to end consumers, assuring the sustainability of the project.

utilizing bagasse boiler at the sugarcane mills

Sugar mills produce large amounts of bagasse the waste every day, making full use of sugarcane bagasse can be very beneficial. A successful implementation of sugarcane trash recovery and its use as a supplementary fuel to bagasse to generate electric power in a sugarcane mill, using conventional boiler/steam-turbine systems, would make it possible to generate a significant amount of power to the grid and create the necessary conditions for the generation year round (season and off-season).

sugarcane in Brazil

In Brazil, 41% of the energy matrix is renewable (the world average is 14%, and in developed countries 6%). Biomass contributes with 27%, the biomass power generation is expected as a potential way to supply large amount of electricity in Brazil. And it is expected that sugar mills could have the largest share in biomass power generation, with the advantage that mills are normally located near large consuming centers.

It is widely known that a steam boiler is an essential part of a power generation. It produces electricity by burning fuel in a boiler to heat water to produce steam. Water is heated and turns into steam, then the steam at tremendous pressure flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to produce electricity. The steam is cooled, condensed back into water, and then recycled to where it was heated. At sugar mills, the bagasse fired steam boiler is a good choice to supply high temperature steam and drive the turbine to produce electricity.
