Technip Energies (PARIS:TE) and Shell Catalysts & Technologies announce a technology transfer agreement which accelerates the commercialization of Technip Energies\u2019 Bio-2-GlycolsTM<\/sup>\u00a0technology for bio-based Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) production from glucose.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MEG is traditionally produced using fossil-based feedstock to make various types of polyesters for packaging materials, such as plastic bottles, and in clothing apparel. With this acquisition, Technip Energies intends to offer a bio-based polyester solution by replacing fossil-based feedstock. By using a bio-sourced monomer, the Bio-2-GlycolsTM<\/sup> technology allows for polyesters to be produced with lower carbon footprints and less environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This technology transfer agreement allows to combine Shell\u2019s research and development results with Technip Energies\u2019 bio-MEG technology, to offer a more efficient, bio-based MEG technology to the market. The new combined technology will be commercialized under the Bio-2-GlycolsTM<\/sup> trademark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Wei Cai, Chief Technology Officer, of Technip Energies<\/strong>\u00a0commented:\u00a0\u201cWe are pleased to have completed this agreement which allows us to propose an optimized, combined solution to make bio-MEG, a common feedstock for various\u00a0everyday life applications. We are confident about rapidly commercializing our Bio-2-GlycolsTM<\/sup>\u00a0technology. Our objective is to offer this technology in 2025 which will contribute significantly to the net zero challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elise H. Nowee, President of Shell Catalysts & Technologies<\/strong>\u00a0commented:\u00a0\u201cWe’re excited to announce this agreement with Technip Energies, combining our respective technologies to enhance and accelerate the commercialization of Bio-2-Glycols\u2122. By integrating Technip Energies\u2019 expertise with our own development work on Bio-2-Glycols, we’re poised to expedite the deployment of sustainable alternatives to fossil-based feedstocks, driving innovation, and together, paving a way for a more efficient and sustainable solution in this area.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
