The company “Victor and Co.” — a producer of products under the brand “Royal Flavor” — is preparing a large-scale modernization of a plant in Kirovohrad region and plans to build its own biomass-fired power plant with a capacity of up to 8,5 MW.
As Dilo writes, this was reported by Latifundist.
Modernization of processing capacities
According to the environmental impact assessment register filing, the project foresees a reconstruction of the oil press workshop, designed to process 600 tons of sunflower seeds per day. For this, the old workshop will be dismantled and a new one will be built with the installation of a buffer silo with a volume of 5,63 cubic meters, sorting equipment, furnaces, and presses.
Separately planned is the reconstruction of the preparation workshop with a pressing section to process 1 thousand tons of rapeseed per day. After this, the plant will be able to process 700 thousand tons of prepared soybean seed daily. Raw materials are planned to be stored in existing elevator silos. The plant is expected to produce 141,9 thousand tons of unrefined rapeseed oil and 178,2 thousand tons of rapeseed meal per year.
Construction of a new C T E S (combined heat and power plant)
The facility will also build a biomass-fired combined heat and power plant with an electrical capacity of up to 8,5 MW. Electricity will be used exclusively for own needs without feed into external networks. The plant will install two steam boilers and a Siemens SST turbine set 200.
Fuel will include sunflower hulls, soybean hulls, and millet hulls; pellets from hulls of sunflowers and soybeans; and mixtures of hulls and agricultural processing waste. The plant will include a fuel storage facility with four silos.
