Biofuels/e-Fuels

SixRing™ Process for Biomass Transformation

SixRing™ specializes in converting sustainable biomass into high-value intermediates, fine chemicals, biofuels, and advanced materials using patented chemical compositions and low-energy processes. The technology operates under ambient conditions, efficiently extracting cellulose and Lignin-Hemicellulose-Depolymerized-Organics™ (LHDO™) from biomass. These components can be upgraded to biofuels such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), diesel, and gasoline.

The company's expertise in nitrogen, hydrogen & circular carbon, fuels & chemicals, and polymers, allows Nextchem to deliver groundbreaking solutions and processes to fully support energy transition. Building on the group's 70+ years of operation, Nextchem is dedicated to developing and offering technology solutions, processes, basic engineering designs, proprietary equipment, and catalysis to drive global decarbonization forward.

Biomass Waste as Feedstock to Fuels

Woodland Biofuels is a company that converts waste biomass to hydrogen, renewable natural gas, methanol, or ethanol. The company uses gasification, which involves converting biomass feedstock into syngas through a high-temperature, oxygen-limited process. The syngas is then subjected to highly efficient catalytic reactions to produce carbon-negative fuels. Woodland’s technology uses waste biomass from low-cost, non-food sources such as forest, industry, agricultural, and municipal waste as input feedstock.

Renewable Fuels Made From Agricultural and Industrial Waste

Aemetis specializes in the production of biofuels, renewable chemicals, and carbon capture technologies for renewable fuels. The company operates ethanol production facilities and is expanding with new projects focused on renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel. Aemetis utilizes advanced technologies to convert agricultural and industrial feedstocks (such as orchard wood waste) into ethanol, other biofuels, and renewable chemicals like isobutanol.

Plas-TCat™, Bio-Tcat™, and Tex-TCat™

Anellotech has developed innovative technologies to recycle mixed plastics, fabrics, and sustainably produce bio-derived chemicals and fuels. Plast-TCat™ focuses on the chemical recycling of plastics, converting large volumes of mixed waste plastics directly into valuable chemicals. This technology offers a novel route to olefins and aromatics from low-value plastic waste feedstocks, capable of processing all major plastics using proprietary catalysts and a fluid bed reactor-regenerator system. It can potentially reduce CO2 emissions by up to 50% compared to monomers from fossil resources.

Aldehyde-assisted fractionation (AAF) technology

Bloom Bio Renewables uses aldehyde-assisted fractionation (AAF) to separate cellulose and stabilize lignin polymers and hemicellulose-derived sugars in biomass. Due to this stabilization, lignin and hemicellulose can be valorized more efficiently, allowing Bloom to transform them into various products. These lignin-derived products are antioxidant, antimicrobial, water-soluble, and efficient in low concentrations. They also filter UV rays and function as excellent emulsifiers and dispersants.

Opus™ Platform for Sustainable Aviation Fuel

Twelve uses its Opus™ platform to transform CO₂, water, and renewable energy into hydrocarbons via CO₂ electrolysis. This is achieved using Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEA), a CO₂-reducing catalyst that electrifies CO₂ and water while only producing oxygen, synthetic gas, and water. This synthetic gas is then used to produce Power-to-Liquid (PtL), Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and E-Naphtha™, the building block for CO2 Made® products.

AIRMADE™

Carbon-negative alcohols and fuels. AIRMADE™ is patented process that imitates photosynthesis. It uses renewable energy to convert excessive carbon dioxide into carbon-negative alcohols and fuels with only oxygen as a by product. Carbon dioxide is captured from industrial plants before they are emitted into the atmospher and is cooled, pressurized, and liquified. Hydrogen is produced with renewable energy through on-site electrolysis; an electrolyzer splits water into hydrogen, yielding oxygen gas a byproduct that is simply released into the air.

REFNOVA™ Biomass Fractionation

Fractionates a variety of lignocellulosic feedstocks to produce high-quality second-generation biofuels and biochemicals. REFNOVA is a process that generates the highest possible yield of biofuels and biochemicals from plant biomass. It uses plant residues that are left after the extraction of food or other primary products. Virtually all forms of plant biomass can be valorized with little or no waste through this process. The company increases income in local areas and minimizes environmental impact by applying REFNOVA at the source using discarded plant materials.

Updraft Gasification System

Gasification systems that convert non-recyclable organic waste (bark, sawdust, clean construction/demolition debris, biosolids from sewage sludge) into a product called "syngas" that can be used to fuel heat and power. This novel process has low air emissions and particulate carryover, reducing emissions controls and permits costs. The design is also very simple and has few moving parts. The gasification system can process many challenging renewable waste feedstocks with moisture contents ranging from 6-60% and sizes up to 75 mm.
