Abstract

The residual biomass has not been fully valued and used in Ecuador from the energy point of view, an example of this is the cocoa mucilage which is currently a waste without useful and profitable use. However, it represents a high energy potential in the production of fuel bioethanol.
The objective of this study was to simulate the production of fuel bioethanol from the CCN-51 cocoa mucilage residue using the Aspen Plus® program.
