Abstract
- Abstract: Due to the reduction of the economic support for refined sugar efforts have been made to find new ways of using sugar beet outside food industry. This paper investigates the possibilities of introducing bioethanol co-production in Serbian sugar plants. Research shows current state of Serbian sugar industry and technical aspects of bioethanol co-production in sugar plants. These results represent important step toward mass production of bioethanol in Serbian factories. The main goals of introducing the concept of sugar and bioethanol coproduction would be efficient use of available resources for the production of energy, reduction of greenhouse gases emission, decreased dependence on import and creation of new jobs. Besides that, it would provide flexibility in terms of variation of produced quantities of sugar and ethanol, depending on the conditions prevailing on the market. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
