It is a consolidated culture with well developed logistics in terms of harvesting and transportation, giving an enormous competitive advantage in relation to other energetic cultures. It is expected that gasification of bio-oil under pressure and in oxygen atmosphere should generate a much cleaner synthesis gas with quality for its use in the catalytic synthesis process. The use of pressurized reactors, fed with bio-oil, aims to reduce the investment costs and increase the production scale of synthesis gas. Although this may be true, there are many technology bottleneck points to be covered, in relation to feeding bio-oil, the quality of the gas, operational conditions of the reactor etc.  aBiofuels  aEthanol  aGasification  aPyrolysis  aBiomassa  aCana de Açúcar1 aJORDAN, R.
