Biomethane is a gaseous fuel derived from the purification of biogas, which is produced by the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter. The sugar-energy sector has the greatest potential for producing biogas and biomethane from waste in the country.
According to estimates by EPE (2022), the sector has a biogas production capacity of approximately 5.2 billion Nm³/year, taking into account the use of vinasse and filter cake, the main waste used to produce biogas in the plants.
Currently, the sugar-energy sector is responsible for more than half the volume of biogas generated in industrial plants,
totaling 269 million Nm³/year. Current production corresponds to only 5% of the potential use of vinasse and filter cake generated in the country. (EPE data)
In 10 years, the potential for biomethane production is estimated to grow by more than 20%, reaching 6.1 billion Nm³ (11.2 billion Nm³ of biogas), considering the total use of vinasse and filter cake and 20% of straw and tips.
For financially stable sugar-energy plants, in 2033, the production potential is estimated at 3.1 billion Nm³ of biomethane, or 5.7 billion Nm³ of biogas.
The potential for expanding biogas production in the sugar-energy sector contributes to the prospect of advancing the biomethane market in Brazil. (Source|: EPE)
