Sugarcane has been primarily used to produce sugar and molasses. It is crop that is grown in tropical and subtropical climates due to its higher agricultural yields. However, there are several co products that can be obtained in various stages of the handling of the crop that contribute to the aggregate value to the production, which is of importance in developing countries facing increasing prices of non renewable fuels and cyclical variation of sugar prices. For cane sugar industries in operation around the world, there is a substantial processing of sugarcane. Appropriate handling of residual of the sugar and co products production can limit the impact on the environment while obtaining a positive economic result. Figure 4 indicates the potential of co products available from processing of 5000 tons of sugarcane per day. .
