The Development of a Micro Distillery for Fuel Alcohol in Brazil
Hulett, D.J.L. 1981. With the onset of the world oil crisis, shortage of fuel in the country and irregular supplies to the farmers, the possibility of producing an ultra simple and comparatively inexpensive distillery which could be installed easily on any farm was investigated and it was found feasible provided a different technology was used. The result was the introduction of the MICRO distillery which in Brazil, is defined as a small factory producing hydrated ethyl alcohol at a rate of less than 5,000 liters/day.
