Inclusão de cana-de-açúcar triturada em biodigestores abastecidos com dejetos de bovinos de corte confinado

The objective of this study was toevaluatethe effect of the co-digestion of triturated sugarcane with beef cattlerfeddlotmanure in continuous digestorsin the amount and quality of biogas and biofertilizer. To do so, the work was divided in three steps. The first and the second part lasted30 days each and evaluated the effect of the additionof 7% of triturated sugarcane in agreement with the followingtreatments:treatment, the digestors were supplied with a mixture of 0,250 kg of manure and 1,750 kg of water ;treatment 2, the digestors were supplied with a mixture of 0,250 kg of manure, 1,610 kg of water, and 0,140 kg of triturated sugarcane. To The third period lasted 30 days and evaluated the effect of adding 3.5% of sugarcane crushed. The data analyses was performed with randomized designusing SAS®program with level of significance of 5%. The digesters with sugarcane produced in the first period respectively 0.79, 0.0127, and 0.102 m3of total production, of biogas production per kilogram of substrate, and of total production per kilogram of manure versus 0.5, 0.0081, and 0.065 m3from the control treatment, respectively..In the thirdperiod,each variable had a total production of 0.76, 0.123, and 0.98 m3and the control treatment yielded 0.51, 0.065, and 0.0082 m3.In the second period,the total production per kilogram of solidand of volatile solids added were higher in the digesters without sugarcane (0.0093 and 0.438 m3) when compared to the digesters that had additionof 7% of cane(0.271 and 0.336 m3).

Pré-hidrólise ácida de bagaço de cana-de-açúcar e sua caracterização físico-química

The biomass resulting from processing sugarcane bagasse has been considered a source of cellulose with the potential production of bio-fuels. This lignocellulose can be processed into ethanol since is hydrolyzed by chemical processes (acids) or biotechnology (enzymes) which generate sugars suit for fermentation. This study had the objective to utilize physical and chemical pre-treatment processes for prehydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse. The experimental treatment was adjusted at a factor of 4 X 2, by the combination of pre-hydrolysis timing (15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes) and sulfuric acid concentrations (7.0% and 9.0%) which was incubated at a temperature of 121° C in an autoclave. The treatment data was subjected to analysis of the variance and averages which were compared using the Tukey test with a probability of 5%. The results obtained showed that through pretreatment acid applied on the lignocellulose material, there was a significant break from the substrate fibers like cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.

Requalificação dos trabalhadores do corte de cana-de-açúcar da região central/sudoeste do estado de São Paulo frente às novas demandas socioambientais

Conforme relatório anual da Companhia Nacional de Abastecimento - Conab de (2012), a lavoura da cana-de-açúcar continua em expansão no Brasil e o Estado de São Paulo corresponde a 52% da produção nacional. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar a expansão canavieira nos EDRs de Botucatu, Jaú e Avaré frente ao “Protocolo Agroambiental” e os modelos de qualificação profissional ofertados. A metodologia utilizada constituiu-se em revisão bibliográfica. A hipótese é de que as políticas dirigidas ao setor “canavieiro” para requalificação dos cortadores não atendem de forma concreta as necessidades dos trabalhadores. Os resultados encontrados permitem concluir ausência de políticas integradas para qualificar e recolocar esses trabalhadores, não assegurando, portanto, a recolocação daqueles que foram dispensados.

Variáveis morfológicas da cana-de-açúcar em função do regime hídrico durante o desenvolvimento inicial

Water deficit is one of the factors which most limit agriculture yield and growth. Although sugar cane has moderate tolerance to drought, it presents high yield losses under the influence of this abiotic factor. Based on this fact, selection of genotypes tolerant to water stress may represent an alternative for decreasing the amount of water used for irrigation, while keeping or increasing yield. This study was performed in order to evaluate the performance of four sugarcane cultivars during initial development under water stress conditions, by means of morphological variables to select more tolerant genotypes to drought. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse at the Department of Rural Engineering, College of Agricultural Sciences - UNESP/Botucatu – SP, from November 26th 2010 to April 5th 2011. A total of four sugar cane cultivars were evaluated (RB855453, RB92579, RB965902 and RB965917) under two treatments as follows: control (100% field capacity) and water stress (50% field capacity). Evaluations were performed at 0, 28 and 63 days after treatment application. The following morphological variables were analyzed: plant height, leaf area, leaf length, leaf width, number of green leaves, shoot and root dry matter. The RB855453 and RB92579 cultivars produced more shoot and root dry matter under water stress treatment, while the RB965902 and RB965917 cultivars had lower shoot and root dry matter production under the same conditions. Therefore, the RB855453 and RB 92579 cultivars can be considered tolerant while the RB965902 and RB965917 cultivars can be considered susceptible.

Cana-de-açúcar e álcool combustível: histórico, sustentabilidade e segurança energética

The cane sugar is important since the early days in the history of the country, following the discovery of Brazil since the colonial period, therefore, the culture has an important role in the Brazilian economy, being one of the main products. In the 1970s with the advent of the economic crisis, geopolitical and the possibility of depletion of oil, countries dependent on imported fuel, sought new energy alternatives. In Brazil, it was decreed in 1975 the creation of the National Alcohol Program - PROALCOOL, who had several years of rising, the increase of distilleries and marketing of cars powered with ethanol blend. Due to the decrease in the price of oil the importance of the program significantly reduced, returning to peak only in 1979, ie, the second phase of the program. Conceived as one of the vectors of the national response to the crisis in oil prices '70s, the program persisted at times rising in others not reaching for more than three decades. Brazil is the second largest ethanol producer, second only to the U.S., where the raw material comes from corn, which becomes a bottleneck biodiesel production because it competes with food production. New technologies developed to increase ethanol production combined with sustainability and economic viability are being held, the principal is the second generation ethanol, known as cellulosic ethanol, ethanol plus third and fourth generation.
