Héctor A. Ruiz visited the Pilot Plant for Process Development – CTBE, Campinas, Brazil, 2014. This is a semi-industrial scale (300 liters) for the production of ethanol and other compounds derived from lignocellulosic materials.
I would like to thank Prof. George Jackson de Moraes Rocha for all his knowledge transmitted during my research stay in the CTBE and his research group.
With our portuguese friend and assistant editor of Bioethanol Journal Dr. Carla Portela
