Corn ethanol industry reaches 45% of the schedule

The 45% advancement marks a new stage in the construction of Coamo’s corn ethanol industry. The project has moved from a phase more focused on civil infrastructure to focusing on the electromechanical assembly of the equipment.

The manager of Coamo’s Corn Ethanol Industry, Emerson Mansano, states that the current moment concentrates activities on civil infrastructure and the beginning of electromechanical assemblies. For him, this phase represents a milestone for local economic development.

Construction enters the verticalization and equipment installation phase

According to Coamo’s Industrial Director, Divaldo Corrêa, the construction has entered a strategic stage.

After completing a significant portion of the civil bases, the work now focuses on the verticalization of the structure and the installation of the equipment.

The plant was designed with cutting-edge technology for the corn ethanol sector. According to Corrêa, the unit features American engineering projects and a global supply chain.

The equipment comes from China, the United States, and mostly from Brazil itself. This combination of suppliers is part of the planned structure to put the factory into operation on schedule.

Construction site gathers more than 70 companies and could reach 2,000 workers

The construction site has become one of the largest hiring hubs in the region. Currently, about a thousand professionals are working on-site, distributed among more than 70 contracting companies.

These teams work in an integrated manner in the civil, electrical, and mechanical sectors. Mansano expects the number of temporary workers to increase in the next two months.

The forecast is to reach about two thousand professionals, coming from various regions of the country, including the North and Northeast, attracted by the scale of construction in Campo Mourão.

Operation remains scheduled for the first quarter of next year

The construction schedule remains on track, with attention to the diligence of manufacturing and the logistics of receiving heavy equipment.

The forecast for completion and start of operations remains set for the first quarter of next year. According to Corrêa, the current pace reflects the project’s maturity and the mobilization of partner companies.
