Colombia has invested in developing its biofuels sector since 2005 to promote rural development and jobs. Biofuel production, especially ethanol from sugarcane, has increased substantially in recent years due to blending policies. As production increases to meet domestic demand, Colombia aims to export surplus biofuels. The country has attractive conditions for biofuel investors and feedstock yields compared to other nations. Foreign companies like Mitsubishi have already invested in Colombia's biofuel refineries.

El sector cosmético es uno de los sectores estratégicos en Colombia y ha sido priorizado por el Gobierno
Nacional para que sea reconocido en el año 2032 como líder americano en producción y exportación de
productos cosméticos con base en ingredientes naturales.
Para ello, se hace necesario fortalecer la competitividad en cuanto a las capacidades técnicas y de
calidad del sector, es por esto que se crea el Programa de Calidad para el Sector Cosméticos Safe+,
con apoyo de la Secretaría de Estado para Asuntos Económicos del Gobierno de Suiza (Seco), el Ministerio
de Comercio, Industria y Turismo (MINCIT) y el Programa de Transformación Productiva (PTP), bajo la ejecución
y liderazgo técnico de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para el Desarrollo Industrial (Onudi).
Este programa de cooperación internacional busca reducir las barreras técnicas y de calidad de empresas
del sector para que puedan ingresar de una manera competitiva y eficaz a los mercados internacionales.
Economic Potential And Relevance Of Biofuel Program In IndiaPhani Mohan K
In 2006, India was the seventh largest net importer of oil in the world. With 2007 net imports of 1.8 million bbl/d, India is currently dependent on imports for 68 percent of its oil consumption.EIA expects India to become the fourth largest net importer of oil in the world by 2025. Unless GOI supports Ethanol Blending program it remains as a vision itself not translating in to action.
Developments in bio refinery and its impact on pulp and paper industryArivalagan Arumugam
Environmental sustainability and energy security, put pressure on the use of renewable or recyclable resources with zero impact on environment for meeting the growing needs of energy. Further mandates and regulations facilitate the use of bio-fuels in transport vehicles. Technological developments have now made it possible to use the renewable resource, namely biomass to produce bio-fuel, power and chemicals in a bio-refinery. Global bio-fuel production is currently estimated at 100 billion liters per year. Food crop, wood, agricultural residues, etc based bio-refineries have emerged as one of the solutions to the global energy problem. Commercial scale bio-refineries are in operation in several countries and some are under construction. Various technologies have been developed for producing bio-fuels, power and or chemicals from varieties of biomasses. This paper reviews the developments in bio-refineries, and its impact on pulp and paper industry

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

1. INVESTMENT IN THE
BIOFUELS SECTOR
BIOFUELS IN COLOMBIA
In 2005,the National Government initiated policies oriented towards establishing
incentives for the production and use of biofuels in the country, with the goal of
promoting a productive development alternative for the formal use of the soil,
contributing to generating jobs, diversifying the o ering of energy options in the
country and converting Colombia into an exporter of biofuels.

RATE OF RETURN FOR BIODIESEL
PRODUCTION (LT/HA/YEAR)
A continuous increase in the production of biofuels will create a market for surpluses; Colombia will be able to supply the needs of other
countries where internal production is not s cient and where the need for its use is growing.
Although the international trade in biofuels is not large and has exchange
barriers due to the existence of production subsidies, it is expected that in
the medium term it will grow, since many countries will not be able to meet
internal demand with domestic production.

levels of supply and other variables. (Current mix: E8, B8 - B10).-

of Mines and Energy).
Based on the “Life Cycle Analysis, 2012”, the ethanol produced
in Colombia reduces GHG emissions by 74%, and biodiesel
reduces these levels by 83%. (EMPA and Universidad Pontificia
Bolivariana).
Palm oil and sugar cane used in Colombia for creating biofuels
have been proven to have higher yield than other raw materials
used around the world.
Once the domestic demand for biofuels is covered, any surplus
can be exported.

sugar cane requires the construction of
new bio-refineries, biomass plants and
development of transesterification, which
allow the transformation of sugar cane
and oil palm into biodiesel.
Colombian soil can be used for planting
crops aimed at biofuel production
(following a soil study).
Exports of biofuels to the United States
and the European Union under free trade
agreements are seen both as a challenge
and an enormous opportunity.
It is expected that the future demand for
biofuels in Colombia will be greater in
the next few years, to the extent that the
mixing policies are increased.
As a consequence, local demand will have
