Carbonor, a chemical industry and currently the largest manufacturer of sodium bicarbonate in Latin America, has inaugurated a new facility in the Industrial Hub of Camaçari, Bahia. Amid the pandemic, a multi-million investment is taking place in the state: New Biodiesel Plant Authorized by State Government Will Generate Over a Thousand Jobs

The new industrial hub has an annual production capacity of 27 thousand tons of carbon dioxide, 30 thousand tons of calcium oxide, or 34 thousand tons of hydrated lime.
