This paper presents an approach to electricity generation using biomass from a rice mill as a basis for implementation of a CDM project and negotiation of credits in the carbon market, in a case study. Through which we could observe management strategies and corporate sustainability in waste management. We used personal interviews with those responsible for management and power generation plant at the company in Itaqui Camil Alimentos SA-RS. It was found that the company is self sufficient in electricity which means lower manufacturing costs and increase financial gains by increasing their competitiveness in domestic and international, in addition to the significant social and environmental gains. Competitive factors and business sustainability work together, because the waste generated in the device are used in energy production. We conclude that the carbon market is a good management strategy when the goal is a cleaner energy, minimize waste and increase financial gains.
