Abstract

This work discusses the feasibility of integrating the production of biodiesel - using soy as raw material - with ethanol in the northern region of Rio de Janeiro State. It aims to find alternatives in the recovery of the regional sugar-alcohol activity. The current stage of the sector in the region and its potential milling capacity for integration are evaluated. Knowledge of the soybean production chain and the technical aspects of biodiesel production were acquired through bibliography and visits to industrial units. The analysis of the large-scale implantation of sugarcane rotation with soybean in the region, the central base of the research, presents a risk.
