Economic analysis of a second-generation ethanol and electricity biorefinery using superstructural optimization

This paper investigates the economic feasibility of expanding a first-generation sugarcane distillery into a biorefinery by producing second-generation ethanol and increasing electricity production. Both products compete for using the same biomass by-products, sugarcane bagasse and straw, as raw-mat...
