Journal ArticleDOI

Fuel ethanol after 25 years.

TL;DR: After 25 years, Brazil and North America are still the only two regions that produce large quantities of fuel ethanol, from sugar cane and maize, respectively, but only tax credits make fuel ethanol commercially viable because oil prices are at an all-time low.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yeast selection for fuel ethanol production in Brazil

TL;DR: Results suggest that the great yeast biodiversity found in distillery environments could be an important source of strains, because during yeast cell recycling, selective pressure is imposed on cells, leading to strains with higher tolerance to the stressful conditions of the industrial fermentation.
Book ChapterDOI

Ethanol Production in Brazil: The Industrial Process and Its Impact on Yeast Fermentation

TL;DR: Positivo University, Programa de Pos-Graduacao em Biotecnologia Industrial Curitiba (PR) Brazil and Saul Nitsche Rocha4 are the authors of this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

What do we know about the yeast strains from the Brazilian fuel ethanol industry

TL;DR: The production of fuel ethanol from sugarcane-based raw materials in Brazil is a successful example of a large-scale bioprocess that delivers an advanced biofuel at competitive prices and low environmental impact.
