Dual Fuel System in Mining Locomotives

Vale is one of the largest mining companies in the world. Their mining operations are focused on iron, nickel, coal, and copper, among others.

Vale decided to apply the ComAp Bi-Fuel system to 2 of its locomotives to certify one of its rail routes as green due to the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the Bi-Fuel conversion. These trains traverse the Amazonian states of Pará and Maranhão in Brazil.

Servintel worked on the conversion of these low-rotation, variable-speed engines, ensuring a high level of safety while significantly improving gas emissions and reducing operating costs without affecting their normal operation.

Vale’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and its focus on reducing environmental impact are core aspects of its operations.

The solutions provided by Servintel have been crucial in helping Vale achieve its sustainability goals, demonstrating that it is possible to combine operational efficiency with environmental responsibility.
