Description
Under new ownership since 2022, the ATU-12 and ATU-18 terminals in Aratú have undergone a comprehensive range of improvements and modernization, including a new berth, structural renovations, and new facility buildings. The new terminals' productivity will now jump from 300 to 2,000 tons per hour in each berth, and handling capacity is expected to increase from 2 million to 12.5 million tons per year.
Products Used
Applied as a slurry across 18,000 m2 (198,000 ft2) of prepared concrete surfaces, PENETRON creates a waterproof barrier to any further chloride ion penetration to prevent the onset of corrosion of the embedded steel. In the presence of moisture, PENETRON penetrates deeply into the concrete matrix. The ensuing chemical reaction fills microcracks, pores, and capillaries with an insoluble crystalline formation, which prevents water and water-borne chemicals from entering, even under high hydrostatic pressure.
