-
Installation of distillation systems for production of
extra-fine alcohol in existing distilleries with capacity of 500 Hl/day,
or in Ports receiving distilled crude alcohol from tributary
Distilleries.
-
Rehabilitation and modernization of existing distilleries
(500-800 Hl/day.
-
New distillery with capacity of 800 Hl/day for the production of export-oriented
fine and extrafine alcohol.
-
Expansion and modernization of existing facilities for
production of rum and other alcoholic beverages.
-
Production of bagasse-based agglomerate
boards in existing factories in
Ciego de Ávila, Las Tunas and Havana provinces.
-
Production of
bagasse-based MDF boards.
-
Production of cement-agglomerate bagasse-based boards.
-
Production of technical dextran (industrial
use)
and its by-products in Matanzas
province.
-
Production of furfural-based alcohol in a
brand-new
plant in Camagüey
province.
-
Production of glucose and sorbitol in Villa Clara and
Camagüey
provinces.
-
Electricity co-generation
projects:
-
New thermal
power station (25-50 Mw). It consists in the elimination of the existing
energy block of the sugar factory and the creation of an independent block
of high efficiency and operation parameters. This unit will receive all
biomass from the sugar mill which, in return, will receive low-pressure
steam and electricity. Most of the generated electricity would be marketed
in the national network.
-
New turbo-generator (5-10
Mw).
In this case, the idea is
to use
surplus steam to generate
electricity by means of the installation of an additional condensation
turbo-generator. This would allow to curve down current power consumption
levels in around 25-40%. It would also allow for the marketing of
surplus electricity to the
public network or another specific consumer in the territory.
-
During the non-harvest season, the thermoelectric plant
might use bagasse stored in nearby sugar mills. It might also use
sugarcane harvest wastes or any other fossil fuel.

As a general rule, the negotiation policy abroad is based on
the contribution of technologies, know how, and technical assistance. The
foreign partner is expected to provide the localization of the projects,
financing, and market.
Potentials for investing abroad.
-
Creation of joint businesses abroad for the production and commercialization
of products obtained through technologies developed in Cuba, which value and
use sugar and its byproducts as the main raw material, as it is the case of
Beverages production, food processing plants for human and animal
consumption, among others.
-
Integration of all the technical and production elements of the sugar
industry (projects, equipment design, research, manufacture of different
equipment, construction, assembly, and operation of sugar mills and
by-products factories) for the further sale abroad of equipment and
services, either individually, or as “turnkey” projects.
-
Promotion for the creation of joint businesses abroad for the
commercialization of services, technical assistance, consulting services,
different studies, projects, development of software and systems, courses
and trainings; supported by the wide knowledge and experience MINAZ has
achieved.
-
Creation of joint businesses abroad for the production and refining of
sugar, as well as further commercialization of this product. Regarding sugar
refining, Cuban crude sugar may be included as the main raw material.
-
Production and commercialization of products obtained through technologies
developed by the Cuban Institute of the Sugar Byproducts. (ICIDCA).
-
Promotion of the creation of joint businesses abroad for the production and
commercialization of sugar tensioning devices, Anticor, Ifopol, and
super-steady paste, using technologies developed by the Cuban Institute of
Sugar Research (ICINAZ).
-
Promotion for the creation of joint businesses abroad for the production and
commercialization of newspaper-type paper, Lignomed and Predical, by using
technologies developed by the Research Institute of the Bagasse Cellulose
(CUBA-9).
