Unigel’s Nitrogen Fertilizer Unit in Laranjeiras-SE said on Thursday that urea production will begin in September. According to Unigel’s CEO, Roberto Noronha Santos, this movement was due to an improvement in the petrochemical cycle. Unigel is currently in talks with Petrobras for upcoming renewable energy and fertilizer projects. Sergipe’s economy is expected to benefit from this good news, as Laranjeiras’ unit has the potential to produce 450 thousand tons of ammonia and 650 thousand tons of urea annually when fully operational.
