Brasília – With a production of 317 million gallons of biodiesel em 2008, Brazil has beccome the third largest producer and consumer in the world, only behind Germany and USA. However the production capacity in jan 2009 reached, 978 million gallons.
Hygrogem is an organic product containg residues from the production of biodiesel containin 80% glycerin, that meets the following specifications: • Glycerin -propane – 1,2,3-triple is a organic composite • Compatible with water, alcohol and most agrochemical products. • Sticker with capacity to dissolve surface wax. • Density 1,26 g/cm³, a 25 ° C, that reduces the effect of drift • Boiling point is 290ºC a 101,3 kg can be mixed 100% with water raising the evaporation point of the homogenous solution. • High surface tension (2 ° C, 80 mN / m) 63,4, • High viscosity of (20 º C, mPa's) = 1499 – fewer small droplets. • Use rate for spraying is 0,500 L / ha.[6.3 fl.ozs/acre] For pre-emergent herbicides and defoliants the rate is double at 1 L / ha [12 fl.ozs] .
Hydrogem is a “patented vehicle” utilized to reduce losses and to enhance the absorption and performance of agrochemicals. The product includes natural organic products containing macro nutrients and quelatized micronutrients .
