Abstract

The production of broiler chickens and industrial furniture manufacturing, are two very significant economic activities for Mesoregion the Zone of Mata Mineira. Both activities generate large amounts of waste in their production processes. It is estimated that the volume of poultry litter is generated around 78,624 tons/year. But the Polo furniture of Ubá produces an average of 480 tons/year. In almost all of the time these wastes are disposed in the environment at random, being characterized as environmental liabilities. Given the composition of characteristics of poultry litter the furniture waste and the need to produce in a sustainable way can adopt these biomasses as a local alternative energy for decentralized power generation. This can occur through the production of briquettes and pellets mixed and its various utilization processes (combustion, gasification, cogeneration) in some productive sectors of the region. The objective was to discuss the possibilities of using poultry litter and furniture residue Polo Ubá, associated or not, and propose sustainable energy alternatives for the region of Zone of Mata Mineira.
