Construcione gained national media attention for leading the execution of a highly relevant project for engineering, sustainability, and the energy transition in Brazil.
The Compre Rural portal published an article about the construction of the world’s largest biogas plant using citrus waste, in Bebedouro, in the countryside of São Paulo, a project developed for Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC), a multinational company and global reference in the agro-industrial sector.
A project with global impact in innovation and sustainability
With impressive numbers and high technical complexity, the new plant is already positioned as an international reference in engineering applied to renewable energy.
According to the information released, the project will include:
- 200,000 m² of total area (approx.)
- Initial capacity to treat 400 m³/h of citrus effluent
- Generation of more than 50,000 Nm³/day of biogas
In addition to its scale, the project stands out for its strategic role in reducing emissions and making intelligent use of citrus waste, strengthening a more efficient and sustainable production model. LDC states that the project is aligned with its commitment to decarbonizing the local operation, with a reduction of more than 20% in CO₂ emissions in Bebedouro.
LDC’s proprietary technology increases project efficiency
Another relevant differentiator of the plant is the use of an inoculum developed by LDC itself, a technology applied to decompose organic waste from citrus processing with high efficiency and transform it into biogas.
According to the published information, this solution achieved up to 16% greater efficiency compared to other technologies available on the market during the testing phase.
This progress reinforces the innovative nature of the plant and shows how engineering, biotechnology, and sustainability can work together to generate long-term value.
Construcione in a historic project for the energy transition
For Construcione, executing a project of this relevance is a source of pride and reinforces its work in highly complex projects, with purpose and tangible impact on society.
The construction of the world’s largest biogas plant using citrus waste represents more than a major engineering delivery.
It is an initiative that contributes to the future of the industry, to the responsible use of resources, and to the advancement of cleaner energy solutions in Brazil.
With technical expertise, strategic vision, and a commitment to excellence, Construcione remains present in projects that transform operations and expand the potential of essential sectors for the country.
Construcione in a historic project for the energy transition
The announced forecast for the completion of the project is by the end of the first half of 2026.
Until then, the project will continue to stand as a relevant reference for the market and for everyone following innovative solutions in engineering, renewable energy, and industrial sustainability.
