• KT-Kinetics know-how will ship on engineering, procurement, development and commissioning (EPCC) foundation the hydrogen manufacturing unit (HPU) which is predicted to be operational by the second half of 2028. It will likely be capable of provide as much as 38,000 regular metric cubes per hour of hydrogen for the manufacturing of Sustainable Aviation Gasoline (SAF) and Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HVO)
• NEXTCHEM will present the licensing of its NX Reform^TM proprietary know-how

Milan, 14 January 2025 – MAIRE (MAIRE.MI) broadcasts that KT -Kinetics Expertise supported by the technological know-how of NEXTCHEM, has been awarded by Pengerang Biorefinery Sdn. Bhd (a Joint Enterprise comprising PETRONAS Mobility Lestari Sdn. Bhd., Enilive S.p.A., and Euglena Co., Ltd.), licensing, in addition to engineering, procurement, development and commissioning (EPCC) companies for an HPU to be positioned in Johor, Malaysia. NEXTCHEM will present the license of its proprietary NX Reform^TM know-how.

The HPU will likely be a part of a brand new biorefinery inside Pengerang Built-in Complicated and can produce round 38,000 regular metric cubes per hour of hydrogen, important for the biorefinery’s conversion processes. Upon completion, the biorefinery will course of approx. 650,000 tons per yr of uncooked supplies comparable to used vegetable oils, animal fat and waste from the processing of vegetable oils to supply Sustainable Aviation Gasoline (SAF), Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) and bio-naphtha.

The contract worth is approx. USD 125 million, and the plant is predicted to be operational in 2028.

MAIRE will make use of NEXTCHEM’s NX Reform™ know-how, a cutting-edge resolution that mixes circularity and effectivity to supply low-carbon hydrogen whereas decreasing emissions and maximizing useful resource restoration. This initiative aligns with MAIRE’s technique to assist shoppers like PETRONAS and its JVs in advancing the transition to low-carbon fuels and growing cutting-edge SAF manufacturing services.

Alessandro Bernini, Chief Government Officer of MAIRE, commented:

This necessary achievement confirms MAIRE’s pivotal function within the vitality transition, and its capacity to ship superior and built-in options that allow our shoppers to paved the way in producing renewable fuels, contributing to a extra sustainable future.
