prominent companies for the project , which now includes renowned names such as Fluor , Worley , North American Energy Service ( NAES ), HDR Engineering , Chevron , ThermoChem Recovery International , Topsoe AS , Xylem , and ARVOS / Linde . “ Recently , another world-class company agreed to participate . Siemens has agreed to provide technology and engineering expertise as it relates to its technology ,” Dave reveals . “ When you include all these companies together , you have close to $ 400 billion of annual revenues in NWABF ’ s list of partners . This is an incredible feat for a new developer / project company and attests to our abilities to attract every element required to execute on our plan .”
Focusing on integrating only secondgeneration process technologies , the refinery will use advanced steam reforming thermochemical gasification of woody
biomass to syngas , syngas conditioning ( cleaning and cooling ) to the Fischer-Tropsch ( FT ) specification , FT gas-to-liquid ( GLT ) reactors setup to catalytically convert the syngas to paraffin wax , light hydrocarbons and naphtha , and an upgrading process that hydrogenates the wax and light hydrocarbons to deliver only Sustainable Aviation Fuel ( SAF ) SPK-ASTM D7566 .
“ The above process technologies have been utilized in the chemical , oil and gas industries for decades and have consistently delivered production efficiencies sustainably and are scaleable ,” explains Dave . “ For the conversion of woody biomass to SAF , the steps require bespoke , phase gated front end engineering design ( FEED ) followed by procurement , construction , and commissioning , to achieve successful commercial operations . NWABF firmly believes that appointing a
Make sure your biorefinery has TRI inside for the most feedstock-flexible and stable gasification technology .
