Bioethanol and biodiesel are the most important biofuels worldwide. Although the production processes of these two biofuels are well established, there is still room for improvements. The integration of these two processes would allow the use of their wastes or byproducts for increasing productivity or generating additional products. This would make it possible to improve the economics and sustainability of both processes. This paper presents an overview focusing on a soybean biodiesel plant integrated into a sugarcane biorefinery. The process integration was evaluated considering agricultural, logistic, geographic, industrial, process stream, equipment, administrative, and commercial aspects. The integrated plant offers the opportunity for cost-effective and environmentally friendly biofuels processing, while expanding the portfolio of potential products.

生物乙醇和生物柴油是全球最重要的生物燃料。尽管这两种生物燃料的生产过程已经确立，但仍有改进的空间。这两个过程的整合将允许利用它们的废物或副产品来提高生产率或生产其他产品。这将有可能改善这两个过程的经济性和可持续性。本文概述了整合到甘蔗生物精炼厂中的大豆生物柴油厂。对过程集成进行了评估，考虑了农业，物流，地理，工业，过程流，设备，行政和商业方面。该综合工厂为经济高效，环保的生物燃料加工提供了机会，
