To capitalize on the fast growing demand for SAF, CAPHENIA GmbH, a pioneer in the development of sustainable synthesis gas technologies, and US based Emerging Fuels Technology, Inc. (EFT), a global leader in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, are pleased to announce they have signed a memorandum of understanding to integrate their technologies for the production of SAF and renewable diesel. This cooperation will optimize CAPHENIA’s leading Plasma Boudouard Reactor (PBR) technology with EFT’s Fischer Tropsch and upgrading \u201cTechnology Platform\u201d to significantly improve the efficiency and scalability of SAF production. The MOU also provides for CAPHENIA to acquire license rights to combine its sygas technology with EFT\u2019s Technology Platform for multiple projects.<\/p>\n
Innovative technology for the conversion of (bio)methane (CH4) and CO\u2082<\/strong><\/p>\n CAPHENIA, based in Bernau am Chiemsee, specializes in the conversion of (bio)methane (CH4) and CO\u2082 into high-quality synthesis gas, which serves as the basis for the production of hydrogen and renewable liquid fuels, especially SAF. Its PBR technology enables the efficient transformation of methane and CO\u2082 into syngas, which is then converted into liquid fuels using EFT’s advanced Fischer-Tropsch and upgrading technology.<\/p>\n EFT’s expertise in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and upgrading technology<\/strong><\/p>\n US based EFT, with decades of experience, is a leader in the development of synthetic and renewable fuels. EFT’s Technology Platform ideally complements CAPHENIA’s strategic direction and enables efficient production of SAF and renewable diesel on a very large scale.<\/p>\n Common goals and technology integration<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThis agreement marks a significant step in our mission to make aviation more sustainable,\u201d said Dr. Mark Misselhorn, CEO of CAPHENIA. \u201cThe integration of EFT’s highly regarded catalyst and reactor technologies will accelerate market entry for SAF and renewable diesel, providing a rapidly scalable alternative to established SAF technologies.\u201d <\/p>\n Kenneth L. Agee, president of EFT, emphasized the strategic importance of this agreement: \u201cOur Memorandum of Understanding reflects our shared commitment to developing efficient, globally scalable sustainable fuel solutions that will significantly contribute to supplying the global demand for SAF for airlines worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n Revolutionary technology and sustainable mobility<\/strong><\/p>\n CAPHENIA has developed the Power-and-Biogas-to-Liquid (PBtL) reactor, which requires significantly less electricity than conventional processes and enables a CO\u2082 reduction of up to 92 percent.
The selectively controllable CAPHENIA 3-in-1 zone reactor and the unique plasma process break down bio-methane into its components carbon and hydrogen. By adding carbon dioxide and water this highly efficient technology produces a synthesis gas that can be processed into renewable fuels and other chemical products without any by-products and minimal energy loss. The reactors are designed for scalability and make it possible to produce large quantities quickly. This technology offers a competitive and sustainable alternative for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector.<\/p>\n
