Camil Alimentos S.A, a Brazilian Food Company, Will Build a Biomass Power Plant Fueled by Rice Husk

The forecast is that the new facility will start operating in 2023. Camil will build the thermoelectric plant with R$ 150 million raised from its first issuance of representative credit securities (debentures). “Rice husk has a high calorific value and thermal regularity suitable for the production of thermoelectric processes, being a more sustainable alternative to fossil fuels,” stated the company.

“Staying up to date with the best market practices through innovative solutions to expand clean energy sources and generate greater energy efficiency in Latin America is among the most relevant issues for Camil’s environmental management,” says the official industry statement to the market, published on November 30, 2021.

About Camil Alimentos S.A.

Founded in 1963 by Jairo Santos Quartiero, Camil Alimentos S.A is a food industry specialized in the production of rice and beans, being a leader in the sector in the country and in South America.

Over the years, the company has been investing in its own renewable energy generation, having two small thermoelectric power plants located in Itaqui and Capão do Leão (RS). With the goal of continuously increasing its power generation capacity, Camil registered an annual increase of 7% until February 2021.

With the new biomass plant in operation, the expectation is that this number will gradually grow.

In addition to the production and commercialization of grains, Camil also offers a diversified portfolio of brands in the sugar and fish sectors, as well as leading positions in Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, and Peru.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Almost 10,000 km/h, 110,000 feet altitude, and New York–Paris in less than an hour: Venus Aerospace tests a rotating detonation engine and aims to transform the Stargazer into a reusable Mach 9 hypersonic plane, but still needs to prove that the promise moves beyond the prototype.

Air bubbles from 3 million years ago extracted from Antarctic ice reveal that the current level of CO₂ has already surpassed that of the ancient, warm world, when the sea was up to 20 meters higher and there were no factories or cars burning fuel.

Brazil went to China to seek money and technology to reinvent TV and bring the internet to places where fiber does not reach. The mission negotiated with the BRICS Bank led by Dilma and paved the way for a Chinese rival of Starlink to connect the Amazon.

About 150 workers are driving, one by one, 4,585 BYD electric cars off a 220-meter ship at the Port of Itajaí. The 48-hour mega-operation is the largest shipment from the Chinese automaker in Santa Catarina this year.
