Sustainable Aviation Gas – Novozymes launches Quara® LowP for renewable diesel feedstock pre-treatment.
Because the world seeks sustainable options to conventional fuels, renewable diesel and SAF manufacturing have taken heart stage. By 2030, vegetable oils are projected to account for over 40% of worldwide feedstock utilized in renewable diesel and SAF manufacturing. Nevertheless, producers have lengthy grappled with challenges associated to feedstock availability, pricing fluctuations, and the ever-increasing market demand.
To deal with these urgent points, Novozymes has leveraged its intensive expertise in enzymatic degumming, which has resulted in Quara LowP, an modern resolution that provides clients flexibility to course of blended feedstocks with out negatively impacting their backside line.
Hans Ole Klingenberg, VP of Advertising, Agriculture & Industrial Biosolutions at Novozymes mentioned:
This innovation is a testomony to our dedication to sustainable options for the renewable diesel and SAF trade.
“Quara LowP gives producers the pliability to course of blends of feedstocks leading to elevated effectivity, diminished working prices, and lowered environmental affect. It’s a nice contribution to the trade and a mirrored image of Novozymes’ dedication to rethinking tomorrow.”
A sustainable resolution for a rising demand
Quara LowP facilitates the environment friendly processing of HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) feedstocks. By pretreating these feedstocks with Quara LowP, producers can obtain increased yields and considerably decrease operational prices, all whereas decreasing the environmental footprint of their operations.
This innovation holds profound significance for the HVO and SAF trade:
• Elevated effectivity: HVO/HEFA feedstock producers now have a way to course of blends of vegetable oils with different lipid feedstocks with out compromising yield or incurring extra working prices. The present apply of overusing bleaching earth/bleaching clay to handle contaminants in vegetable oils when mixing with waste oils is a factor of the previous. Quara LowP gives a extra environment friendly and cost-effective resolution.
• Financial advantages: With Quara LowP, producers can get pleasure from elevated yields and decrease working prices, overcoming course of inefficiencies.
• Environmental affect: The trade can profit from a greener operation, with diminished waste dealing with hazards and decrease water consumption, aligning with the worldwide sustainability objectives.
As Novozymes ventures into the renewable diesel/SAF trade, which is projected to develop at a compound annual development price (CAGR) of 12% from 2023 to 2027, Quara LowP is about to play a pivotal function in driving the trade’s development, sustainability, and effectivity.
