  • Forestal will utilize BASF’s proprietary OASE\u00ae<\/sup> technology for efficient CO2 <\/sub>removal in the production of e-methanol<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Forestal\u2019s pioneering Triskelion project with a daily capacity of 156 metric tons of e-methanol<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    BASF and Forestal de Atl\u00e1ntico S.A. (Forestal) have signed an early disclosure agreement (EDA) aimed at advancing the production of e-methanol (eMeOH) through carbon capture solutions. Under this strategic partnership, BASF has been selected to share its proprietary OASE\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0blue technology, designed for the efficient removal of CO2<\/sub>\u00a0from flue gases, for use in Forestal\u2019s pioneering Triskelion project in Galicia, Spain. The Triskelion project is set to be a game-changer, with a design capacity of 156 metric tons per day of e-methanol production. The CO2<\/sub>\u00a0captured from the exhaust gases of electricity generating turbines will be transformed into e-methanol by reacting it with renewable hydrogen, highlighting an innovative approach to a more sustainable fuel production.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The EDA facilitates the essential input from BASF for the Front End Engineering Design (FEED), which will be developed by a third-party contractor hired by Forestal. This process will enable Forestal to assess the project\u2019s clarity, vision, technical feasibility and economic viability, allowing them to share the design with other contractors for competitive construction bids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With the OASE portfolio, BASF is an established leader in gas treatment technology which is used in over 500 reference plants worldwide, and is committed to providing support throughout the FEED preparation. Forestal has selected the OASE blue technology to efficiently separate CO2<\/sub> from the exhaust gases of electricity-generating turbines for use in e-methanol synthesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cThis partnership addresses the critical need for innovative solutions in carbon capture and utilization, marking a significant stride towards reducing global emissions,\u201d said Torsten Katz, Global Business Director, OASE Gas Treating Technologies, in BASF\u2019s Intermediates<\/strong> division. \u201cBy collaborating with Forestal, we are setting the foundation for one of the first plants to produce e-methanol using our OASE technology, entering into an innovative sustainable application area for our OASE blue technology.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cBy utilizing CO2<\/sub>\u00a0captured from our production processes, we are embracing a more sustainable approach to fuel production,\u201d stated Andr\u00e9s Fuentes, CEO of Forestal del Atl\u00e1ntico<\/strong>. \u201cThis partnership with BASF not only enhances our capabilities but also contributes to the development of sustainable fuels, particularly in the maritime industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    The Triskelion project stands to be a pioneering facility in the production of e-methanol using BASF\u2019s OASE blue technology. e-methanol represents a more sustainable source of methanol and is seen as a crucial step in the effective utilization of carbon capture technology. It offers a more sustainable fuel alternative for industrial transportation, including international shipping, and serves as a raw material for various chemical synthesis processes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
