Yara collaborates by supplying the low-biuret urea used in the formulation, in addition to being in charge of marketing the final product. <\/p>\n\n<p>Test activities began in June 2025 and the first shipments to the states of Paran\u00e1 and Santa Catarina are now underway.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is ARLA 32 and why is it so important?<\/h2>\n\n<p>ARLA 32 is an aqueous solution composed of urea and demineralized water that works in SCR systems of diesel vehicles. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/study-reveals-electric-vehicles-equal-gasoline-and-diesel-vehicles-in-longevity\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"225001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">diesel vehicles<\/a><\/strong>It transforms nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water vapor, thus helping to reduce polluting emissions.<\/p>\n\n<p>Its local production allows supplying domestic demand with greater stability and consolidating the environmental commitment of the energy sector. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/digital-skills-energy-sector\/\" data-type=\"articulo\" data-id=\"111056\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">energy sector&#8217;s environmental commitment.<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The reactivation of Ansa is part of a R$6 billion investment package that Petrobras will allocate to the fertilizer segment over the next five years. In this Paran\u00e1 unit alone, an injection of R$870 million is projected. <\/p>\n\n<p>Ansa has <strong>installed capacity to produce up to 720 thousand tons of urea per year<\/strong>, in addition to 475 thousand tons of ammonia and 450 thousand <sup>m3<\/sup> of ARLA 32. The plant is expected to be operating at full capacity in the second half of 2025. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards autonomy in industrial inputs<\/h2>\n\n<p>With Ansa&#8217;s start-up, together with the operations planned at other plants, such as Fafens and UFN-3, Petrobras plans to <strong>cover up to 35% of the domestic demand for urea and derivatives.<\/strong> This strategy seeks to reduce foreign dependence, to boost the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/santos-and-engie-team-up-to-bring-narrabri-gas-to-the-local-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"285538\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gas market<\/a><\/strong> and strengthen the security of supply of essential inputs for Brazilian industry. <\/p>\n\n<p>ARLA 32 production is expected to reach a monthly volume of 3 million liters. This figure reflects the growth of the diesel fleet and stricter regulatory requirements in terms of emissions. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/agencia.petrobras.com.br\/w\/regionais\/petrobras-entrega-primeiro-lote-de-arla-32-na-ansa-em-araucaria-pr-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Petrobras<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The company expects Ansa to produce 3 million liters of this input per month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8403,"featured_media":289282,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13036],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-289308","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-oil-and-gas"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/289308","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8403"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=289308"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/289308\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/289282"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=289308"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=289308"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=289308"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
