en.Wedoany.com Reported - Heurtey Petrochem Solutions (part of the Axens brand) has secured a major technology contract with Transition Industries to supply advanced electrically heated tubular furnaces (efurnace) for the Pacífico Mexinol project in Sinaloa, Mexico, supporting its goal of developing a net-zero methanol project. This facility is an ultra-low carbon methanol plant designed for sustainable chemical production.
Located near Topolobampo, the facility is expected to commence operations in 2030, producing approximately 6,130 metric tons of methanol per day. The Pacífico Mexinol project integrates advanced process technology, carbon capture, water management, and low-carbon production pathways, and upon completion, it will become one of the world's largest ultra-low carbon chemical production facilities.
Under the agreement, Heurtey Petrochem Solutions will provide its proprietary electrically heated tubular furnace technology. This electric furnace utilizes resistance-based heating, replacing traditional flame heating systems, and is designed to deliver safe, reliable, and efficient performance for demanding industrial applications.
Heurtey Petrochem Solutions has decades of experience in furnace design, development, and industrial operations. This contract demonstrates that its high-power electric furnace technology can meet the complex requirements of next-generation energy and chemical projects, further solidifying its leadership in advanced electric heating solutions.
The contract is regarded as a significant milestone for Heurtey Petrochem Solutions, reflecting growing market confidence in its electric furnace technology and its ability to deliver high-performance equipment in large-scale industrial decarbonization projects.
