Planejamento e controle de produção em uma indústria produtora do biocombustível etanol na região das Missões/RS

Abstract

Ethanol is currently gaining strength, as it is a less polluting energy source compared to other fossil fuels. This biofuel produced from sugar cane has great importance for agriculture economically, because of this it develops a great importance in relation to its production process, which motivates the realization of the present study, which is about production planning and control in a producing industry. biofuel ethanol in the Missões / RS region. The study seeks to understand how production planning and control materializes in an ethanol production industry, located in the COREDE Missões Region. The literature review deals with the location in which the industry is inserted, the transformation of production management over the years, production planning and control and its theoretical aspects, the industrial sector of ethanol production and how production planning and control works. in an ethanol industry. The present study is characterized as a case study, with a qualitative approach. Regarding the techniques used to obtain data, observations were made in the industry, along with a documentary research, in which one can have knowledge of all types of control methods and planning, the studied company presented simple control methods , and that can be improved by incorporating systems, such as raw material input control software, programs that do not require manual control of the milling or also inventory control methods where the information automatically comes to the manager without him need to go to them, changes like these, can lead to increases in the efficiency of their production process and, consequently, higher ethane yield per processed ton.
