Limites e possibilidades de desenvolvimento da cadeira produtiva do álcool: um estudo de caso no Rio Grande do Sul
Description
The actual energetic context is characterized by environmental problems caused by de industrial developing and by the high value of oil (energetic base of the developing model) witch leads us to the search of alternatives (renewable energies), that may complement or replace the actual existing energy chain. In this reality the development in Brazil is remained focused in two ‘clear’ energy chains: biodiesel (developed by vegetable oils) and the alcohol (that is from the sugar cane), center of this work. The state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) buys its alcohol from São Paulo state, by doing that it reduces its capacity of taxes collect and energy development. So, developing the productive chain of alcohol combustible in RS is one of the ways to conquering self- sufficient. In this context is the COOPERCANA, responsible for the production about 2% of the alcohol combustible consumed in the state of RS. In this way, this study has as objective to identificate and comprehends the general characteristics of the busineNenhuma
