CLAVELO SIERRA, Dennis Abel; GONZALEZ CORTES, Meilyn  and  ESPINOSA PEDRAJA, Rubén. Considerations for the mass and energy integration in the sugar process production and derivative process. cen. az. [online]. 2015, vol.42, n.2, pp. 93-98. ISSN 2223-4861.

The current society needs now more than ever of industries that create new forms and methods where the saving of energy and materials is a fundamental aspect. For this reason, in the present investigation we present an outline with the considerations for the integration of the processes of sugar and other derived products, in an outline of bio refinery with the objective of achieving efficient processes with an appropriate use of the material resources and an efficient use of the energy, with minimum operation costs and investment. In the outline we take as base for the study, it is considered that the integrated complex has as basic input the sugarcane; it is also considered the variation of the prices of the products in the market.  In the article we make an outline with the precise steps for the development of a methodology that allows analyzing the processes involved in the biorefinery outline and in this way to identify the common material and energy resources that the processes exchange. A heuristic diagram is presented that guides the strategy to continue for it.  

Keywords : Integration of processes; cane of sugar; energy; trash; bio refinery.
