The Transportation of Pulp by MRS and Bracell at the Intermodal Terminal of Pederneiras Has Been So Efficient That the Numbers Impress

With less than 8 months of operation, the Intermodal Terminal of Pederneiras has already received the transportation of 1 million tons of pulp for the Port of Santos, in the last week of April, by the major companies MRS and Bracell. This points to the great efficiency in transportation and the operations involved in paper production in Brazil.

MRS signed a contract with Bracell in July 2020 and built from scratch a large terminal specialized in pulp transportation over 7 months, purchasing wagons and locomotives. Operations began in September 2021 and, within 8 months of operation, have already reached the remarkable mark of 1 million tons.

Solid Results Are Cause for Celebration, as Pulp Is an Essential Product for the National Economy

To achieve this result, a joint effort from engineering and project professionals, institutional relations, and supplies was necessary, in addition to a quality infrastructure that ensured smooth operation. The strategic planning devised by the major companies Bracell and MRS was the main reason for success in this endeavor. After all, they managed to optimize the construction process, pulp production, and ultimately, transportation. The result could not have been different.

The Commitment to Sustainability Begins With Production

According to data from the General Overview of the Pulp and Paper Industry in Brazil and Worldwide, produced by the Ministry of Mines and Energy, in 2022, Brazil is the second-largest producer of pulp in the world, behind only the United States. This gives great importance to the country, which is responsible for 11.3% of all pulp produced worldwide.

Therefore, the search for renewable resources to nourish this industrial segment has become a true mission, with which we are achieving success. The figure below shows the evolution in the percentage of use of renewable energy sources within the sector.

In addition to this significant evolution, it is worth highlighting that in Brazil, 100% of pulp production is obtained from reforested areas, and 70% of this product is destined for export, mainly to the European Union. This contributes to sustainability from its production to its disposal.

In this sense, the major companies Bracell and MRS are contributing to the sustainable pulp chain, bringing greater technology and integration in favor of the environment. The milestone of 1 million tons transported demonstrates the efficiency of national pulp and the warming of the market for the coming years.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

More than 160 million gallons of water, equivalent to 240 Olympic swimming pools, need to be pumped to remove a 100,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier from dry dock; each of these ships undergoes a complete overhaul costing US$2.8 billion.
