Análise de viabilidade da produção de bioetanol a partir dos subprodutos do setor orizícola.

Abstract

The gradual replacement of fossil fuels aiming to reduce the emission of greenhouse effect gases, as well as the diversification of energy sources, are demanded by society. Ethanol is presented as a source to meet the need of the national market consumption of energy in the medium term because it has a significant impact on reducing CO2 emissions compared to gasoline, and its production possibility does not depend only in one feedstock. The present study has the intention of analyzing the feasibility of bioethanol production from paddy industry by-products. The analysis was focused on the interference of financial methodologies, for which were outlined statements of income, based on the estimates of production, revenue, fixed costs, variables and fixed investment during a period of ten (10) years. The assessment of the financial viability was performed by analyzing the data collected during a visit made to COOPERFUMOS. The financial indicators, Net Present Value (VPL) are R$ 131,658.52 positive, the Internal Rate of Return (TIR) of 21.56% and Profitability Index of R $ 1.34 and it shows that the project is profitable. The discounted payback of seven years, one month and one day shows return on initial investment within the period surveyed. Positive values are pointed out on marketing, which was made based on statutory rates without considering the possibilities of cooperative act, given that it is about the legal cooperative nature. These results may stimulate the dissemination of the model implemented by COOPERFUMOS in Santa Cruz do Sul - RS to other cities, with the necessary adaptations, providing support and encouragement to new models of production and marketing, providing opportunities for the improvement and diversification of household income, contributing thus, for the expansion of renewable fuels and environmentally clean in the Brazilian energy matrix.
