Optimization approach for bioethanol production from agro-industrial waste

Seeking energy alternatives that are friendly to the environment without compromising growth of society is becoming more widespread. Biofuels from biomass processing a promising path toward development industry and early replacement fossil fuels. The purpose this work determine feasibility generating biofuels through use agro-industrial waste mathematical model for optimization supply chain production generated by food processors in municipality Zamora, Michoacán, Mexico. This case study considers available raw material, industries, period time which these available, as well possible places obtaining biofuels. results establish it obtain 7.27 × 10 7 l/year bioethanol 3.27 6 tons/year organic waste, generates profit 4.37 USD/year.
