FOX Brasil, your PANGEA Partner in Brazil, is currently involved in a project relating to a biomass power plant in Mexico.
The contract includes the transportation of 3,650 tons of equipment such as a steam boiler, turbine, generator and transformer, among other items; the shipments are being moved from Sao Paulo to Veracruz.
A sugar refinery that is part of the Coca-Cola group will be using the biomass-powered steam generator, supplied by a Brazilian firm, to help ramp up its operations.
The term ‘biomass’ refers to any organic, non-fossilised matter of animal or vegetable origin that can be used to generate heat, either for direct industrial use and electricity generation or in the production of other forms of energy (such as charcoal, ethanol, biodiesel or combustible gases).
Among the 3,650 ton of equipment to be moved along the 450km from the plant to the port of Santos, the highlight item of the project is a steam boiler weighing 76.5 tons and 16.5m in length.
