JALON and Montecristo to Showcase Molecular Sieves for Ethanol Dehydration at Fenasucro 2026

23/07/2026

JALON will participate in Fenasucro & Agrocana 2026 together with its Brazilian partner, Montecristo Distribuidora, from August 11 to 14 in Sertãozinho, São Paulo. At Booth D38, the two teams will present JALON molecular sieves for ethanol dehydration and discuss how product technology, application experience, and local support can help ethanol producers maintain reliable dehydration performance.

Fenasucro brings together companies from across the sugar, ethanol, bioenergy, equipment, and process-technology sectors. For JALON, the event is an opportunity not only to introduce its ethanol dehydration products but also to meet producers and engineering partners working to improve ethanol purity, adsorbent life, and unit stability.

Global Technology with Local Support in Brazil

JALON’s cooperation with Montecristo gives Brazilian customers direct access to local communication, supply coordination, and commercial support. Montecristo’s knowledge of the Brazilian market complements JALON’s manufacturing capabilities and experience in adsorption materials. Together, the two companies are able to respond more closely to customer requirements, from initial product consultation and delivery arrangements to communication during product application.

For ethanol producers, this local presence means a more convenient supply channel and a team that understands both the product and the needs of the Brazilian bioethanol industry.

Molecular Sieves Designed for Ethanol Dehydration

Producing fuel ethanol and anhydrous ethanol requires efficient water removal across repeated adsorption and regeneration cycles. Feed conditions, operating temperature, regeneration settings, and cycle frequency can all affect the long-term performance of the adsorbent. JALON’s ethanol dehydration molecular sieves are developed specifically for these operating conditions. The product formulation and manufacturing process are designed to support stable dehydration performance under high-temperature, high-moisture, and frequent-cycle conditions.

The products can be used in new dehydration units as well as in molecular sieve replacement projects where customers are seeking improved purity control, structural stability, or adsorbent life.

A Formulation Developed to Preserve Ethanol Purity

During adsorption and regeneration, high temperature and moisture may promote catalytic side reactions. These reactions can introduce additional impurities into the process and affect the quality or possible end use of the ethanol. JALON’s updated formulation helps reduce the formation of impurities associated with these side reactions. By limiting unwanted catalytic side-reactions, the molecular sieve supports consistent ethanol purity and a broader range of downstream applications.

This makes the product especially relevant to plants that need to balance effective water removal with increasingly demanding product-quality requirements.

Lower Dust Generation and Longer Service Life

Adsorbent performance is also influenced by its physical condition inside the bed. Dust and fines may accumulate during long-term cycling, restrict gas and vapor flow, block part of the pore structure, and contribute to pressure-drop problems.

JALON has optimized its production process to reduce dust generation and improve structural stability. The resulting molecular sieve is designed to retain its physical integrity under demanding operating conditions and support a longer service life. Stable particle quality also helps maintain more consistent bed performance throughout repeated adsorption and regeneration cycles.

Experience across the Global Bioethanol Industry

No two ethanol plants operate under the same conditions. Feed-water content, cycle settings, regeneration temperature, unit capacity, and final ethanol specifications may vary significantly from one project to another.

JALON works with global customers to understand these conditions before offering molecular sieve solutions. Its technical team can support product selection for new units, replacement projects, and applications where existing adsorbents are no longer delivering the expected performance.

This combination of product development and practical application experience enables JALON to deliver value tailored to the actual needs of each dehydration unit.

Let’s Meet at Booth D38

During Fenasucro 2026, the JALON and Montecristo teams will be available to discuss:

· molecular sieves for fuel ethanol and anhydrous ethanol

· ethanol stream impurity control

· dust generation and structural stability

· adsorbent replacement and service life

· product selection for different operating conditions

· local supply and support in Brazil

We welcome ethanol producers, engineering companies, equipment manufacturers, and other industry partners to visit Booth D38 and speak with our team.

Meet JALON and Montecristo at Booth D38 during Fenasucro & Agrocana 2026.
