Clariant – MegaMax™ catalysts will energy China’s first biomass-to-green methanol undertaking
- Clariant is collaborating in a China’s biomass gasification-to-green methanol undertaking, scheduled to begin up within the first half of 2025
- Venture will depend on Clariant’s high-performance MegaMax methanol synthesis catalyst and will likely be China’s first commercialized biomass gasification-to-green methanol plant
- The catalyst is completely suited to inexperienced methanol manufacturing because of its excessive exercise and enhanced stability
MUNICH, November 27, 2024 – Clariant, a sustainability-focused specialty chemical firm, at the moment introduced that its MegaMax catalyst was chosen for a China’s biomass gasification-to-green methanol undertaking. The plant will use a mix of farm waste and wind energy to provide as much as 250,000 tons each year of inexperienced methanol in two phases by 2027. Development of the primary plant part started in March 2024 and is anticipated to begin producing inexperienced methanol within the first half of 2025 as China’s first commercialized biomass gasification-to-green methanol plant.
Georg Anfang, Vice President Syngas and Fuels at Clariant Catalysts, commented,
We’re more than happy to be a part of this groundbreaking undertaking.
“With over 50 years of experience in methanol synthesis and a transparent dedication to creating revolutionary catalysts for the power transition, we’re a perfect accomplice for this prestigious sustainability undertaking. Inexperienced methanol will play an important position as renewable gas in addition to feedstock for inexperienced chemical manufacturing.”
Clariant’s MegaMax is a superb resolution for China’s first biomass-to-methanol undertaking, because it supplies enhanced stability and tolerance to the fluctuation of the system required for inexperienced methanol manufacturing. It additionally provides excellent exercise – even at very low reactor temperatures and pressures. Due to the catalyst’s enhanced selectivity, manufacturing yield is low in by-product formation, considerably bettering the economics of inexperienced methanol synthesis.
Clariant will present complete technical service to make sure optimum catalyst efficiency by means of its Utilized Catalyst Expertise (ACT) crew of extremely certified engineers and specialists. Additional help may be offered by means of the CLARITY™ digital service portal, which provides entry to real-time plant knowledge to boost reliability, security, and profitability.
