Resumo

The production of vegetable charcoal generates atmospheric emissions, which can be controlled by the instalation of collectors for the condensation of such emissions, forming the pyroligneous acid.The development of collectors for the condensations and characterization of the acid for commerce can contribute with the local sustainable development.This study intends to investigate the technological, economical and legal aspects of the production and commerce of the pyroligneous acid.The chosen method was case study in Presidente Lucena/RS, Brazil, with use of surveys, interviews with producers and responsible government sectors' representatives.The results indicate that the pyroligneous acid extraction technique is little-known and little used by the producers, that the current market does not absorb the pyroligneous acid offering and the ruling is not relevant.
