MAPPING TECHNOLOGICAL INFORMATION IN PATENT DOCUMENTS: USE OF COFFEE GROUNDS IN BIOFUEL PRODUCTION
Última alteração: 2019-12-04
Resumo
The study aimed to map technological information contained in patent documents related to the use of coffee grounds as a raw material in the production of biofuels. The methodology has consisted of searching for patent documents in Derwent Innovations Index, National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) and LATIPAT-ESPACENET, using keywords and codes of International Patent Classification (IPC) and Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC), previously identified in the bibliographic and patent review. The results indicated concentration of technologies in class C10L-005 in solid state; reveal South Korea, Japan and the US as markets in which there is greater commercial interest; suggest that there is no technological maturity at the industrial level yet; and show that biofuel development in Brazil has been driven by government policies.
