This capacity is distributed among a dozen tank storage units: five for molasses\u2014two of 750 cubic meters, two of 2,000, and one of 1,500\u2014, another five for palm oil, each with a capacity of 1,500 cubic meters, and two more for fatty acids, totaling an additional 500 cubic meters. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey are insulated, as are the pipes, and equipped with systems to control the internal temperature; it is a very modern installation,\u201d highlights Salvador Cordero, Operations Director at Herpasa Inoxilos, the company responsible for the plant&#8217;s construction, which is currently also working on another industrial facility in the Arteixo area.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the tank storage and pipes, a small building was constructed to serve as a control room for loading and unloading operations. This is managed using specialized software for valve control. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The investment made by Galigrain in this new infrastructure amounts to approximately 5 million euros and is the result of the relocation and expansion of the facilities that Oleosilos de Galicia previously had at the Calvo Sotelo dock.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Published by La Voz de Galicia.
