Sugarcane Bioenergy for Sustainable Development: Expanding Production in Latin America and Africa: Routledge Studies in Bioenergy

Editat de Luis A. B. Cortez, Manoel Regis L. V. Leal, Luiz A. Horta Nogueira
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2020
In recent years, there has been a rapid expansion of the growing of crops for use in bioenergy production rather than for food. This has been particularly the case for sugarcane in Latin America and Africa. This book examines the further potential in the context of the food versus fuel debate, and as a strategy for sustainable development.


Detailed case studies of two countries, Colombia and Mozambique, are presented. These address the key issues such as the balance between food security and energy security, rural and land development policies, and feasibility and production models for expanding bioenergy. The authors then assess these issues in the context of broader sustainable development strategies, including implications for economics, employment generation, and the environment. The book will be of great interest to researchers and professionals in energy and agricultural development.

Introduction: Production of sugarcane bioenergy in Latin America and Africa PART I Bioenergy overview: the context 1. The future of fuel ethanol 2. Bioenergy in the world: present status and future 3. Is there really a food versus fuel dilemma? 4. Integrating pasture intensification and bioenergy crop expansion 5. The role of the sugarcane bioeconomy in supporting energy access and rural development 6. Is the sugarcane capital goods sector prepared to respond to large-scale bioenergy supply in developing countries? 7. Energy medium and long-term perspectives: are we moving towards an "all-electric model"? 8. Comparative assessment of non-ethanol biofuel production from sugarcane lignocelluloses in Africa, including synfuels, butanol and jet fuels 9. 2G 2.0 10. Medium- and long-term prospects for bioenergy trade Part II Why bioenergy? 11. Why promote sugarcane bioenergy production and use in Latin America, the Caribbean and Southern Africa? 12. The potential of bioenergy from sugarcane in Latin America, the Caribbean and Southern Africa 13. Reconciling food security, environmental preservation and biofuel production: lessons from Brazil 14. Energy security and energy Poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa 15. Sustainable bioenergy production in Mozambique as a vector for economic development 16. Integrated analysis of bioenergy systems: the path from initial prospects to feasibility and acceptability Part III Availability of land and sugarcane potential production 17. Initial considerations to estimate sugarcane potential in Mozambique and Columbia 18. Sustainability aspects: restrictions and potential production 19.
