One of the main air pollutants is the emission of exhausted gases from the transport and municipal
central-heating plants. The use of fossil fuels in these branches pollutes air mainly by sulphur oxides (SOt) and
carbon oxides (CO and C02). The distribution of polluting gases is represented in million tons of sulphur oxides
and dioxide or nitrogen oxides and carbon were emitted because of combustion of fossil fuels. The share of
sulphuroxides emitted by Thermoelectric Power Plants is 85.1 %, by household heating -10.1 %, by the industry -
4.2 % and by transport - 0.64%.
Pollution with sulphur oxides contributes to increasing the acid rains and pollution with carbon oxides - for the
greenhouse effect. Both have an impact on global climate. One of the ways to decrease their effect is the
substitution of fossil fuels by renewable energy sources (RES). The position of the European Union in this
direction is maintained by different Associations and among them - The European Biomass Association
(AEBIOM). In the White Paper for RES1 the main EU strategies to achieve the goals of Kyoto Agreement are
defined. One of them is that the Member States should encourage the increase of RES according to their own
potential with the aim of increasing the share of renewable energies to 12 % of the total energy demand of the
European Union
Global warming is thought to be caused mainly by the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), with thermoelectric
power plants being responsible for about 7% of global CO2 emissions. Biomass can reduce CO2 emissions from
thermoelectric power plants, but for this use, they must be resistant to the mixture of gases produced by the
power plants. The ecological efficiency concept, which evaluates by and large the environmental impact, caused
by CO2, SO2, NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions. The combustion gases of the thermoelectric power
plants working with natural gas (less pollutant) and diesel (more pollutant) cause problems to the environment,
for their components harm the human being life, animals and directly the plants.
Brazil Biomass Pelleting: is a technological process by which loose material is subjected to pressure and high
temperature (lower than in the briquetting process) thus increasing its density and reducing volume. Pellets are
used as an energy fuel and as feed.
Brazil Biomass Wood chips Energy Production: is based on the processing of forestry residues (branches,
stumps, etc.). Wood chips is combusted in the boiler houses burners.
BIOMASS AND RENEWABLE ENERGY
To combat climate change and to increase the share of renewable energy sources biomass will play an important role.
However, it has to be assured that the increase in use of biomass for energy purposes goes hand in hand with the
conservation of biodiversity environment, because biomass production may create additional environmental
pressures, such as on biodiversity, soil and water resources. The optimisation of all steps from biomass cultivation or
collection over transport and processing may contribute to get the maximum greenhouse gas emissions reductions
and to reduce emissions affecting air quality.
The progress has been made, the 2010 target of 21 % renewable electricity for EU corresponding to 22.1 % for EU15
will not be achieved under current policies and measures. Instead, currently implemented policies will probably result
in a share of between 18 % and 19 % in 2010. In total, renewable energy accounted for about 15.2 % of total
electricity generation in 2002. It has been identified that the main reason why the target is not being achieved is
because the production of electricity from biomass has not been as high as initially foreseen To ensure that biomass
will contribute in the planned way to achieve the renewable energy goals for 2010 the European Commission
presented an Biomass Action Plan4 in December 2005. This action plan sets out measures to increase the
development of biomass energy from wood, wastes and agricultural crops by creating market-based incentives to its
use and removing barriers to the development of the market.
A variety of studies have proven the available potential of biomass in the European Union as well as in the OECD
(Siemons et al. 2004, Thrän et al. 2004, Bauen et al. 2004, EEA 2005). Some data shall be provided in the following
to get an idea about what are the most important biomass sources of the future.
The growing demand for fossil fuels in the world: Between 1950 and 2005, the world's consumption of oil grew more
than 80%, bringing global demand to 85 million bbl. of oil per day. Despite this incredible growth, the appetite for oil in
the world only increases, as developing countries like China and India finally move toward styles of living comparable
to those of Europe and the U.S.. Most estimates show incredible double the oil requirement of the between 120 million
and 130 million bbl. per day by 2025 or 2030. This requirement can be met if a majority of the additional stock
coming from the Middle East, with Saudi Arabia, without taking into account the peak demand in the future the
sources tend to run out in the coming years. World consumption of liquid in the event of increases in IEO2007
reference to 118 million barrels per day (239 in quatrilhões BTU) in 2030, as the world continues to experience strong
economic growth. Two thirds of the increase in world consumption of liquid in case the reference is designed for use in
the transport sector, where there are few competitive alternatives to petroleum. The industry has a 27-percent share
of the projected increase, mainly for use in manufacturing chemical and petrochemical product.
Coal from Asia in Asia: Coal consumption in emerging economies of Asia designed to be more than doubled, rising
from 2118 million tonnes in 2002 to 3715 million tonnes in 2015 and 4435 million tonnes in 2025. The projected
increase from 2317 million tonnes from 2002 to 2025 represents 78 percent of the increase in world consumption of
coal over the period, despite large increases in consumption of coal designed for emerging Asia. In total energy
consumption in the region also is designed to tilt slightly, from 47 percent in 2002 to 44 percent in 2025 demand for
coal from Asia: 3715 million tonnes in 2015.
Problems of Pollution from coal in the U.S.. Coal is highly polluter in the generation of electricity. With all surprising
technological innovations on the last century, one thing has not changed much is confidence in the U.S. from fossil
fuels, Over 50% of the electricity generated in the U.S. still comes from coal in the 21 century. U.S. should lift the 280
coal thermoelectric power plants by 2030. China is building the equivalent to a large thermoelectric coal per week.
Pollution by particles is one of the most dangerous air pollutants approximately 64 million Americans are affected
directly, putting their health at risk.
WOOD BRAZIL BIOMASS
Brazil is the largest country in South America. Approximately 2.3 million square kilometers -- 27 percent of Brazil’s
total area of 8.5 million square kilometers -- can be considered "frontier" forest. Brazil's frontier forests comprise
17 percent of the world's remaining frontiers, making it the third highest ranked country in terms of remaining
frontier forest. Brazil has the third largest block of remaining frontier forest in the world and ranks first in plant
biodiversity among frontier forest nations.
Much of the raw materials Brazil Biomass we use for biomass comes from certified forests. FSC promotes forest
sustainability by evaluating the company’s forest management practices considering economic viability,
ecological integrity and social justice.

PREMIUM WOOD CHIPS EUCALYPTUS
Brazil has tradition and a significant potential on biomass production. The historical importance of biomass
energy in Brazil is due to a set of factors, including (i) the size of the country and the availability of land, (ii)
the adequacy of its weather, (iii) the availability and the low cost of the working force and, most important, (iv)
the domain of biomass-production and biomass-conversion technologies in the agricultural and in the
industrial sectors. The accomplishment of these conditions defines a potential biomass. Wood Chip is readily
available and cheaper than mains gas and oil. Wood Chip is a renewable energy source. Wood Chip
combustion is carbon neutral. Wood Fuel heating systems can be fully automated. Wood Fuel heating
systems convert 90% of the fuel into usable heat energy.
Quality management. Cost-efficient production of high quality fuel according to the requirements of the boiler
producers. Trouble-free operation (no impurities like metalls, stone, oversized particles etc.).. Main objective:
satisfied costumers.. Complete controll of the production chain from basic material.. Self-and foreign controll of
the fuels according to the standards of CEN/TC 335.. Constant enhancement of the production process.

Be ecologically sound by using Briquettes. Among products which guarantee this balance of nature and development are
Briquettes, fuel made from compacted wood shavings and sawdust, without any chemical substance. It is an excellent substitute
for firewood, oil, coal and gas. Suitable for industrial boilers, ovens, greenhouses, furnaces, fireplaces and barbecues, it is an
industrial product available all year round, in different measures and diameters.
The replacement of the array of non-renewable fossil fuels by the burning of renewable biomass reduces the amount of
greenhouse gases from human activities emitted into the atmosphere. Within the carbon market, the planting of forests
energy may have benefits in two ways, through carbon sequestration done on plant growth and reduce emissions through
the replacement of the energy matrix of fossil fuels by biomass. Our goal is the use of forest residues, which replace the
emissions of methane from forest residues and reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuel combustion in the replacement
of polluting energy matrix. The sequestration of carbon from forest plantings energy, is eligible within the Clean
Development Mechanism - CDM, as activity of Forest / Forestry - A / R (the original English Aforestation / Reforestation), in
the case of forests of eucalyptus and pine. The methodology AR-AM0005 was approved by the panel of methodologies of
the UN Framework Convention for Climate Change.
The use of the entire production chain from the tree, even a part for commerce and energy potential of biomass of forest
residues in the co-generation of energy is a practice widely accepted within the CDM and markets volunteers, taking an
important role in reducing emissions from fossil fuels recognized and accepted around the world.

throughout the production chain for international business. Biomass in the form of wood is provided by owners of the
region. The biomass wastes that would be stored in batteries in the open, Decomposing and generating methane will be
used for industrial process. With the project the wood chips are avoiding the generation of methane.
Project: Generating renewable energy source, in addition to avoiding the generation of methane.

Energy The second project of business we are offering to the market and will be developed by a
co-generation Power Plant Power with the use of forest residues and for the generation of electricity. Results in higher
project for commercial use of biomass co-generation of energy in Brazil and one of the largest in the world, contributing
substantially to sustainable development locally, both in view of mitigation of environmental problems as the current
generation of municipal revenue. We have the approval of the Carbon Fund of the World Bank, resulting in perspective as
a model for generating correct and monitored by certificates of carbon credits. Description of Project: The project consists
of replacing the use of waste biomass to renewable (splinter of wood, sawdust, etc.). To generate steam and power.
Project: Generating renewable energy source, in addition to avoiding the generation of methane arising from the storage of
waste batteries in the open forest.
Project: Replacing the consumption of 11,300 tonnes of fossil fuel and biomass to generate energy.
Reducing emissions: 32,700 TCO2 - Amount of ton of carbon: € $ 15
The mill will operate providing electricity and heat from the same fuel, biomass, from the waste of our plant. In addition to
supplying much of the energy consumption in the region, the Mill will strengthen the economy adding value to a product
before it was discarded and would undermine the environment. We use the example of Tractebel Energy that sells carbon
credits of the Office of Co-generation Lages, enterprise certified as Clean Development by the United Nations. The plant
generates energy from waste from the logging industry in the region, avoiding the emission of methane gas would be
released with the decomposition of wood and cause the increase of greenhouse effect with the consequent increase in the
destruction of the ozone layer. With that attitude more the company strengthens its commitment to environmental
preservation.

World energy problems. Consumption of energy dependent on fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas). Finite reserves of fossil fuels
and high prices. The increase in consumption will continue (United States, China and India). Serious environmental and
economic consequences from the use of fossil fuels and emission of greenhouse gases.
Kyoto Protocol signed in 1997. Objectives of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Adoption of common policies to reduce CO2
emissions Biomass - Renewable Energy. The content of carbon emitted during combustion of biomass was previously captured
the atmosphere in a short time period - balance = zero balance.
Strategic options of Brazil Biomass and International: Solutions for the supply of fuel from renewable sources, the international
market or the national market for co-generation of energy. Conversion of liabilities of carbon emissions in assets with economic
recovery emissions avoided. Processing of forest biomass for sale to international customers. Installation of energy crops for
production of biomass for commercial purposes and co-generation of energy. Minimizing the costs of disposal of waste from
logging operations and its use as a product. Valuation of property and renewable energy products.
Options used by Brazil Biomass and International. Operation in the forest in the area of production and total recovery of wood
and forest residues and the valuation policy of social and environmental responsibility. Experimentation, import and adaptation
of technologies. Wood chips production of paper and forest biomass. Different types of biomass for different types of
technologies. A product of high quality, certified in Brazil and Europe and used as an industrial source and a product in the form
of biomass with the use of forest residues for the burning and the generation of energy. Innovation and integration of technology
and operations to optimize the management models of different types of forest residues.
Biomass Energy Plants in Brazil and the International : Since inception, the Brazil Biomass and International BMC identified
bottlenecks in the future commercial supply of biomass waste originated from forest and there is a demand and widespread use:
Looking for international companies, increasing from Wood chips and biomass and that hardly can be satisfied with waste from
forestry operations (tendency to grinding of wood and for increasing prices). Localization assent bit of forest residues.
Advantages of Energy crops: Energy crops with lower overall costs of production. Stabilization of prices and the pressure on
timber and other forest products which currently derive raw material for other industrial sectors. Increased demand for biomass
could be met with new areas of crops on a large scale.
Objectives for 2009 and the Biomass Brazil International: The process with new industrial production units in Rio de Janeiro,
Northeast, Sao Paulo, Rio Grande do Sul and Parana. Produce and export to international customers 100,000 tones per month
of paper Wood chips and pine and eucalyptus of 100,000 tones per month of forest biomass with the waste to the plants for
co-generation of energy. Capture new energy markets. Start the conversion of consumption of fossil higher price associated with
the production of industrial steam.
