also according to this project:

SUGAR/ACOHOL MILL

Evaluate sugar cane trash availability and quality for utilization in gasification systems
Evaluate the agronomic routes to green cane harvesting with trash recovery
Test the ACFBG process, operating at atmospheric pressure, with bagasse and cane trash to verify which modifications, if any, will be required in its design to operate with those fuels
Analyze the integration of a BIG/GT system with operation of a typical sugar/alcohol mill, (a) considering the optimum energy balance of both plants together and mutual impacts during normal operation and transients and(b) identifying the modifications required in the BIG/GT plant to operate with bagasse and sugar cane field trash.
Identify and evaluate environmental impacts due to the eventual large-scale introduction of the new technology: green cane harvesting and power production with BIG/GT Systems, from bagasse and trash, at the sugar mill.
Disseminate project findings and information to the world’s sugar cane producing countries
