CO₂ Gas Plants Built for Ethiopia's Beverage & Industrial Growth

Ethiopia is one of Africa's fastest-growing economies and home to one of the continent's most dynamic beverage and food processing sectors. With a population exceeding 120 million, rapidly expanding brewery and CSD capacity, a world-leading coffee processing industry, and major industrial parks in Hawassa, Adama, Dire Dawa, and Bole Lemi, the demand for reliable, high-purity CO₂ is growing at pace. MOS Techno Engineers designs and exports fully automated, turnkey CO₂ Production Plants engineered specifically for Ethiopian industrial conditions.

As a landlocked country, Ethiopia receives all imported capital equipment through Djibouti Port — a logistics route our export team manages as standard, including customs documentation, transit freight, and delivery to your Ethiopian facility. Our plants operate on diesel, LPG, or natural gas and are designed for continuous production in environments where grid power supply can be intermittent, incorporating automatic safe-shutdown and restart systems as standard.

Ethiopian beverage producers and industrial manufacturers choose MOS plants because they deliver 99.99% food-grade purity compliant with ISBT standards — the benchmark required by Coca-Cola Ethiopia, BGI Ethiopia (St. George's Beer), Heineken Ethiopia (Walia Beer), and Habesha Breweries. Our systems are engineered for the high-ambient temperatures and diesel-primary fuel infrastructure common across Ethiopian industrial sites, with robust PLC automation to minimise operator dependency.

Whether you are commissioning a new brewery in Addis Ababa, expanding a CSD bottling line in Dire Dawa, setting up an industrial gas supply at Hawassa Industrial Park, or establishing CO₂ supply for coffee processing operations in Jimma or Sidama, our plants are available in capacities from 50 kg/hr to 2,000 kg/hr to match your exact production requirements.

CO₂ Production & Purification Process

A proven 5-stage process — from controlled combustion to food-grade liquid CO₂ ready for bulk cryogenic storage or cylinder filling operations in Ethiopia

01

Controlled Combustion

Fuel — diesel, LPG, or natural gas — is burned under precisely controlled conditions in the combustion chamber, generating a CO₂-rich flue gas stream as the raw feedstock for the plant. Diesel is the standard choice for most Ethiopian industrial sites.

02

Scrubbing & Absorption

The flue gas is scrubbed with water and soda ash to remove sulphur compounds (SO₂), then passed through the absorber tower where a lean MEA solution selectively captures the CO₂ content.

03

Stripping & Purification

The CO₂-loaded MEA solution is heated in the stripper tower to release concentrated raw CO₂ gas, which then passes through an oil-free two-stage compressor and a high-pressure stainless steel purifier.

04

Drying & Filtration

CO₂ passes through an automatic dual-column molecular sieve drier and an iV 1100 grade activated carbon filter — eliminating residual moisture, odours, and trace aldehydes to meet EFDA and international food and beverage specifications.

05

Liquefaction & Storage

Purified CO₂ is condensed into liquid form via an R404a refrigeration system and held at 18 bar / −24°C in insulated storage tanks, ready for cylinder filling or direct process supply across Ethiopian production facilities.

Inside a CO₂ Plant — How Purity is Achieved

The CO₂ generation system recovers CO₂ from combustion flue gas in a continuous closed-loop process. Flue gas first enters the Scrubber Tower where it is washed with soda lye solution to strip out sulphur (SO₂) and cool the gas stream before it enters the absorber circuit.

Inside the absorber tower, lean MEA solution reacts with and captures the CO₂, while the remaining inert gases are vented safely. The CO₂-rich MEA solution is preheated via a plate heat exchanger before entering the stripper, where steam releases the CO₂ gas at high concentration. The gas is then compressed in a non-lubricated two-stage compressor to below 17.5 kg/cm².

Compressed CO₂ passes through an iV 1100 grade activated carbon tower to eliminate odour and aldehydes, then a dehydrater tower to achieve a dew point of −70°C to −80°C. The dried gas is chilled to −24°C in the liquefier, converting it into food-grade liquid CO₂ stored in a CO₂ storage tank — ready for Ethiopian beverage, coffee processing, and industrial applications.

Why Ethiopian Manufacturers Choose MOS CO₂ Plants

Engineering features and support capabilities matched to Ethiopia's operating conditions, diesel fuel infrastructure, rapid industrial expansion, and the specific demands of brewery, CSD, and agri-food processing sectors

01

Diesel-Primary Design for Ethiopian Sites

Diesel is the dominant fuel across Ethiopia's industrial zones — from Addis Ababa to Hawassa and Dire Dawa. Our plants are optimised for diesel-fired operation, delivering high CO₂ yield, consistent output, and straightforward maintenance using locally available fuel and technical expertise.

02

Power Interruption Resilience

Ethiopian manufacturers regularly contend with EEP (Ethiopian Electric Power) supply interruptions. Our plants incorporate automatic safe-shutdown sequences and controlled restart protocols that protect plant integrity, prevent product contamination, and resume production cleanly when grid power is restored — with seamless generator integration available.

03

Oil-Free CO₂ Compressors

Dry-running compressors guarantee zero oil contamination in the CO₂ stream — a strict requirement for EFDA-regulated beverage and food production facilities, and for brewery franchise operators supplying Coca-Cola Ethiopia, BGI/St. George's, Heineken Walia, and Habesha brands under ISBT purity standards.

04

Landlocked Export via Djibouti

As a landlocked country, Ethiopia receives all capital equipment imports via Djibouti Port. Our dedicated export team manages the full logistics chain — factory loading, sea freight to Djibouti, transit documentation to Ethiopia, and in-country delivery — giving Ethiopian buyers a single accountable supplier from manufacture to site arrival.

05

High-Altitude & High-Ambient Rated

Ethiopian industrial sites range from high-altitude Addis Ababa (2,355 m above sea level) to low-altitude, high-temperature locations in the Rift Valley and Afar region. Our plants are engineered to perform reliably across this full altitude and ambient temperature range — without efficiency loss or cooling system compromise at elevation.

06

PLC Automation — Low Operator Dependency

Fully automatic PLC-based operation with one-touch monitoring reduces reliance on specialist CO₂ plant operators — a critical advantage in Ethiopia's rapidly scaling industrial park environment, where consistent production output must be maintained regardless of operator experience level.

CO₂ Plant Utility Requirements — Ethiopia Reference Data

Diesel-fired utility consumption across our full capacity range. All plants are custom-engineered for your exact Ethiopian site conditions — including altitude correction for Addis Ababa and highland locations.

Production Capacity Fuel — Diesel (kg/hr) Water (m³/hr) Power (kW)

100 kg/hr350.648
200 kg/hr700.880
300 kg/hr104.91115
500 kg/hr1751.25180
1,000 kg/hr3492.5390
2,000 kg/hr1,7453.5552

* Figures shown are for diesel-fired operation at standard conditions. High-altitude Ethiopian sites (Addis Ababa, Hawassa, Bahir Dar) require engineering adjustment for reduced air density. LPG and natural gas configurations carry different consumption profiles. Contact us for an Ethiopia site-specific utility calculation.

Liquid CO₂ Storage

Stored at 18 bar (261 psi) and −23°C in insulated pressure vessels with active cooling assemblies and digital pressure monitoring — engineered for reliable storage performance at both high-altitude Addis Ababa and low-altitude Rift Valley operating conditions.

Compression Pressure

CO₂ gas compressed in a non-lubricated two-stage compressor to below 16.5 kg/cm², then fed to activated carbon towers at 18 bar for final purification before liquefaction — altitude-corrected for Ethiopian highland sites on request.

Safety Systems

Multiple automatic safety interlocks, pressure-relief circuits, and digital alert systems monitor the plant at all points — including automatic safe shutdown during EEP grid interruptions, with orderly restart on power restoration and full alarm logging for EFDA compliance records.

PLC Automation

Centralised PLC control panel with SCADA-ready architecture enables one-touch plant operation, remote monitoring, and data logging — designed to maintain consistent CO₂ output quality and production records aligned with EFDA and international food-grade audit requirements.
