Bioplástico: diversificación de la industrialización de la caña de azúcar que contribuye con el medio ambientLos residuos de embalajes plásticos de origen petroquímico, durante el transcurso de la historia humana se tornaron un problema ambiental, debido a largos años que llevan para su descomposición. De esta forma, ha aumentado las investigaciones sobre la innovación de polímeros biológicos que puedan atender a las necesidades de las personas y al mismo tiempo que reduce los impactos ambientales. En el mundo, la Braskem es una empresa pionera en la producción de polímeros biológicos proveniente del bagazo de caña de azúcar, siendo utilizado en diferentes formatos con finalidades distintas. El objetivo de esta investigación es levantar las actividades de la industria sucroenergética a favor de la producción de polímero biológico. La metodología se trata de un análisis documental, de divulgación hecha por la empresa en su Website a partir de 2011, referente a proveedor de materia prima, beneficios de la producción de bioplástico, el mercado mundial del producto y la influencia en los resultados financieros de la empresa productora. Los resultados identificados retratan que a Braskem ofrece instrucciones a los proveedores, sobre la producción de materia prima que será para la producción de polímero. La lista de siete beneficios vinculados a esta producción, que puede influenciar en la decisión en adquirir este tipo de polímero. Además de eso, la Braskem informa para donde y cuales empresas adquieren sus polímeros, siendo identificadas la comercialización interna y externa en el Brasil y la influencia de la comercialización de polímeros en su ingreso neto expresado en el ingreso porcentual.Palavras-chave: Innovación; Preservación de los Recursos Naturales; El Plástico Biodegradable.
Bioplastics: diversification of industrialization of cane sugar contributes to the environmentWaste plastic packaging of petrochemical origin, became in the course of human history an environmental problem because of the number of years that lead to decomposition. Thus, there is growing research on innovation biological polymers that meet the needs of individuals and at the same time reduce environmental impacts. Worldwide, Braskem is a pioneer in the production of biopolymer originating from bagasse of sugarcane, which is used in different packaging formats for different purposes. The research objective is to raise the activities of the sugarcane industry in favor of the production of biopolymer. The methodology comes from the documentary analysis of disclosures made by the company on their website from 2011, relating to: supply of raw materials, benefits of bioplastics production, markets that are marketed products worldwide and the influence of this product the financial results of the production company. The results depict identified Braskem instructs the suppliers on the production of the raw material to be used for the production of the polymer. Lists seven benefits linked to this production, which may influence the decision to a...
The aim of this article is to propose a model based on Balanced Scorecard (BSC) to run the strategy of the sugar-energy companies regarding to the business unit for bioelectricity cogeneration. The model adds three new perspectives to the BSC namely environmental perspective, human resources perspective and supplier perspective. Bioelectricity cogeneration will become indispensable for the modernization of the sugarcane mills that already accounts for 2% of the Brazilian GDP in the economic sector of the sugar-energy industry. The low cost of bioelectricity cogeneration due to the use of residual sugarcane biomass as raw material such as bagasse, straws and tips, which are wastes of the production of sugar and ethanol process is a strong incentive for the sugar-energy industry. The opportunity to supply bioelectricity to the Brazilian Interconnected Electricity System arose when an unusual dry period occurred in the Southwest/Midwest regions. The achieved results on a model running show that it can be a useful ma nagement tool. The scientific value of this study is to present a model that demonstrates the possibility of adaptation of the BSC with emphasis on meeting specific industry demand. In addition, an environmental problem solved using bagasse, straws, tips from sugarcane to produce electricity.
