In the sugar-energy sector, practically nothing is lost and everything is transformed. JpilonSA units maintain a set of efforts across the agricultural and industrial area with the aim of increasing productivity and optimizing the use of waste.

Vinasse: this is a liquid residue from the distillation that occurs during the ethanol production process. It is rich in potassium, a nutrient necessary for fertilizing sugar cane. Through strictly controlled actions, vinasse is applied for fertiirrigation, a fertilization technique that uses irrigation water to deliver nutrients to the cultivated soil. Jets of water in the air fall like rain on most sugarcane fields to facilitate its application.

Filter cake: generated in the clarification of sugarcane juice, the cake is rich in phosphorus and organic matter. After treatment and supplementation with nutrients, it results in compost used in planting and in ratoons to replace the use of mineral fertilizers.

Rational Use of Water: the company invests in projects that aim to reduce the amount of water captured from the environment for the production of sugar and ethanol. Both the agricultural and industrial areas that make up the four JpilonSA units have this attitude of controlling the amount of water used.
