Why Paraguay needs filter aid

Paraguay is a major soybean and beef exporter with cheap hydropower from Itaipú, supplied by river barge.

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 Paraguay

Soy crushers at Villeta need spares and bleaching earth.

In Paraguay, 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

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