UNICA: Brazil's Anhydrous Ethanol Output Up 27% Early July
The Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association, commonly known as UNICA, said in a new report that production of anhydrous ethanol rose about 27% during the first half of July.
The report issued this week said that 615 million liters of anhydrous ethanol was produced in the first 15 days of the month, compared to the 486 million liters produced for the same period during the 2010-2011 harvest.
UNICA said the increase in the production of anhydrous ethanol suggests the industry is serious about meeting domestic demand.
On demand, the report said 6.19 billion liters of ethanol was sold in the South-Central region of the country between April and July 16, which is down about 16% from same period last year.
Most of the sales were anhydrous ethanol, with hydrous ethanol sales lagging. Anhydrous fuel ethanol is also called pure ethanol, because it contains 1% or less of water.
