Borealis is testing a feedstock derived from vegetable-based waste streams at its cracker in Stenungsund, Sweden. The test will determine the extent to which the renewably-sourced feedstock can be used as a replacement for fossil fuel-based feedstocks.

Alder Fuels is currently working on a unique technology which has the potential to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at scale by converting biomass into sustainable low-carbon crude oil that can be used to produce aviation fuel. United Airlines and Honeywell have invested in the technology company which aims to produce fuel that is a 100 % drop-in replacement for petroleum jet fuel.

Haiwan Chemical has awarded a technology contract and license agreement to KVT for the world´s largest Glycerine based Epichlorohydrin production complex. Scheduled to be built in Qingdao, China, KVT will license its Epiprovit closed loop technology to the facility.

Exxon Mobil’s affiliate Imperial Oil has plans to produce 20,000 barrels per day of renewable diesel at a new complex at Canada’s Strathcona refinery. The complex will make use of locally grown plant-based feedstock and hydrogen with carbon capture and storage to meet the low-carbon fuel standards.

Marathon and ADM have plans to establish a joint venture which will focus on the production of soybean oil (feedstock) in order to produce renewable diesel. Under the terms of the agreement, the joint venture will own and operate ADM’s soybean processing complex in Spiritwood, USA which is expected to produce 600 million pounds of refined soybean oil annually.

Air Liquide has teamed up with Total Energies to develop low-carbon hydrogen production in the Normandy industrial basin in France. A large-scale CO2 capture and storage solution (CCS) will also be implemented at the site.

Under the three agreements signed between BP, Adnoc and Masdar, the companies jointly aim to develop low carbon hydrogen hubs and decarbonized air corridors between the UK and UAE. BP and Adnoc also have plans to continue decarbonizing existing oil and gas operations by using methane detection, CCUS and pioneering digital technologies.

Johnson Matthey and NextChem’s MyRechemical have plans to commercially develop the ‘waste-to-methanol’ technology across the globe. The methanol derived from the technology can be used for producing low-carbon fuels as well as be used as a raw material in the chemical and plastic industries.

Global Energy has partnered with Proman to set up the ‘Cromarty Clean Fuels Project,’ a renewable power to methanol plant at the Nigg Oil Terminal in Scotland. The new facility is expected to use local sources of captured CO2 for the production and it will also store as well as load green methanol to be exported on bulk carrier vessels.

Gevo’s NW Iowa RNG (renewable natural gas) project is under construction and is expected to produce 355,000 MMBtu of RNG per year. Under the agreement with BP, the renewable natural gas will be sold into the California market in the US.
