Chlorum Solutions LLC will use thyssenkrupp nucera technology for its next two chlor-alcalis plant in Brazil. The company has ordered two skid mounted plants with BM2.7 electrolysis technology from the supplier of world-leading technologies for high-efficiency electrolysis plants. The two chlor-alkali electrolysis plants will provide the company with a production capacity of 45 tons of chlorine per day. They will produce sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), HCl (hydrochloric acid), and NaOH (caustic soda).
The first chlor-alkali plant will be installed in the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina and the second one in the state of Minas Gerais. thyssenkrupp nucera will provide engineering, equipment (mostly pre-assembled and tested on skid), and consulting services during the installation and commissioning of the plant.
The modular concept of thyssenkrupp nucera’s chlor-alkali plant for smaller capacities offers significant savings in construction costs and enables fast, simple, and cost-effective assembly. The complete plant is prefabricated in modules that only need to be erected and connected together on site. This approach significantly reduces project risks and duration. Both plants are planned to go into operation in the second quarter of 2024.
The company Chlorum Solutions specializes in the construction and operation of small scale chlorine plants for the production of hydrochloric acid and hypochlorite, and aims to build several new plants in the coming years.
