Ethanol
We also produces hydrated ethanol, used in tanks of cars powered by ethanol; anhydrous ethanol, which is mixed with gasoline as an additive to fuel the tanks of gasoline-powered vehicles; and industrial ethanol, mainly used in the production of paints, cosmetics and alcoholic beverages

.
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION
Soil preparation and correction, Planting, Fertilization, Pest control diseases and weeds, are some of the several operations that make up the cane production process, making available in quantity and quality suitable for harvesting.
HARVEST
Our sugarcane fields are harvested through a mechanized process, using leading edge technologies such as high performance machines, high precision GPS, 4G communication among others.
TRANSPORT
Then, high-capacity trucks transport the cane from the cane fields to the mills
MILLING
In the mills the sugar cane milled for the extraction of the broth, also used in the manufacture of sugar.
TREATMENT
The broth then undergoes heating, chemical treatment , decantation and sieving to remove impurities.
FERMENTATION
The pure broth receives the addition of yeasts responsible for its fermentation, producing ethanol and carbonic gas. The result is the fermented wine
CENTRIGUGATION
The wine is subjected to the centrifugation process which separates the yeast into the next fermentation cycle, leaving only ethanol and wayer for distilation.
DISTILATION
Through evaporation and condensation the ethanol is separated from the wine. This processresults in hydrated and ethanol used fuel.
DEHYDRATION
Thedehydrated ethanol goes through the dehydration process in which the water is eliminated to obtain anhydous ethanol which is mixed with gasoline
