Why Brazil needs filter aid

Brazil is Latin America's largest economy, a global leader in soybeans, iron ore and sugar, with a big manufacturing base in São Paulo and offshore oil around Rio de Janeiro.

Bleaching earth is consumed in every batch of refined edible oil, at roughly 0.5–2% of oil weight, so refineries order it on a fixed schedule.

Edible oil milling & refining in Brazil

Soy crushers in Mato Grosso, Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul need bleaching earth and spares.

In Brazil, oilseed crushing mills and solvent extraction plants buy filter aid from us mainly for edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) and mineral and lubricant oil re-refining.

Who buys filter aid: Oilseed crushing mills · Solvent extraction plants · Edible oil refineries · Oil packers

Oil, gas & petrochemicals in Brazil

Brazil's hydrocarbon sector needs a steady supply of alloy and carbon steel piping, API-standard valves and spiral-wound gaskets. Plant maintenance teams value a supplier who ships the whole line list with EN 10204 3.1 documentation in one container.

In Brazil, upstream oil & gas and refineries buy filter aid from us mainly for biodiesel and wax and paraffin purification.

Who buys filter aid: Upstream oil & gas · Refineries · Petrochemical plants · Fuel depots

Chemicals, fertilisers & petrochemicals in Brazil

Chemical and fertiliser plants in Brazil handle corrosive media, so they buy stainless and alloy piping, PTFE and graphite seals and lined valves, and ship finished product in HDPE drums and barrels.

In Brazil, petrochemical complexes and fertiliser plants buy filter aid from us mainly for juice, beer and sugar filtration and edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran).

Who buys filter aid: Petrochemical complexes · Fertiliser plants · Speciality chemical makers · Chemical distributors

Typical uses: Edible oil refineries (palm, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, rice bran) · Mineral and lubricant oil re-refining · Biodiesel · Wax and paraffin purification · Juice, beer and sugar filtration.
