BioGLP Is Obtained From Renewable Source, There Is No Risk of Environmental Harm or Resource Depletion. Since 2017, the European continent and the United States Have Been Selling Small Quantities of the Product.
University of São Paulo (USP) Signed a Cooperation Agreement With Copa Energia. The University Will Assist the Group, Owner of the Brands Copagaz and Liquigás, in Developing a BioGLP Project Over the Next Four Years. The Leader in Gas Supply in Brazil Also Has Another Project With the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul.

BioGLP Developed by USP Emits Up to 80% Less Carbon In Combustion Than Fossil-Origin
BioGLP Is a Gas Fuel of Renewable Origin Obtained From Waste Treatment, Sugarcane Bagasse, and Vegetable Oil, for Example. The Renewable Gas Has the Same Performance as the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Currently Marketed, Commonly Known as Cooking Gas.
Chemically Speaking, BioGLP Performs the Same Function Compared to the Traditional Type. The Difference Is Sustainability, As It Emits Up to 80% Less Carbon During Combustion Than Fossil-Origin Gas. Since It Is Obtained From Renewable Source, There Is No Risk of Environmental Harm or Resource Depletion. Since 2017, the European Continent and the United States Have Been Selling Small Quantities of the Product.

Use of Gas (GNV or Biogas) as Fuel Came to Save Consumers’ Money and Becomes a Better Alternative to Replace Gasoline and Diesel in Light and Heavy Vehicles, in Addition to Reducing Pollution
The Use of Gas (GNV or Biogas) as Fuel in Light and Heavy Vehicles Is One of the Solutions Found as an Alternative to Gasoline and Diesel in Order to Reduce Pollution and Also for Those Who Want to Ease the Burden With Constant Fuel Price Increases.
In Rio de Janeiro, the Use of GNV in Passenger Vehicles Is Common, Being a Solution Based on Cost-Effectiveness of the Product and Currently Helping to Combat GHGs (Greenhouse Gases).
Through Environmental Governance (ESG), Companies Have Been Demanding “Environmentally Correct” Behavior from the Market. With This in Mind, As an Alternative to Diesel and Gasoline, It Is Possible to Observe Some Trucks and Agricultural Machines Powered by Gas. This Technology, Which Uses Otto Cycle Engines, Allows for the Use of Both GNV (Fossil Fuel, However, Less Polluting) and Biogas (Gas Obtained by Anaerobic Fermentation of Organic Material).
