MAHOGANY project – SOMAL INFRASTRUCTURE MODERNISATION PROGRAM

The project of the Martiniquaise Air Liquide Company is to increase its liquid nitrogen storage capacity in order to meet the growing needs of the market. Currently, the SOMAL has a storage capacity of 5500 L and wants to increase to 26000 L. This project requires the installation of a new tank, and equipment necessary for operations. The implementation of a new nitrogen reservoir will also have many positive impacts on the SOMAL’s incentive, namely, better day-to-day production management and therefore limiting the shutdown and restart phases of the production unit, a decrease on electricity consumption. Thus, it should be noted that this project is structured around 3 actions which are: optimisation of the carbon dioxide working stand, the installation of a paint booth and the increase of nitrogen production capacity.
