Thyssenkrupp Uhde has been selected to participate in a biomass conversion project developed by Elyse Energy in France. This project focuses on efficiency and sustainability, using advanced technology to convert forest residues and biomass into renewable fuels, contributing to the decarbonization of the aeronautical sector.
The biomass conversion project into SAF
The initiative, dubbed BioTJet , aims to produce SAF from wood residues and other biogenic waste. This development responds to the demand for sustainable aviation fuels and remains aligned with the European Union’s objectives, which set a 70% SAF quota by 2050. To achieve this, Thyssenkrupp Uhde’s PRENFLO gasification technology converts biomass into valuable synthesis gas, an essential element for the creation of these biofuels.
[post_relacionado]The BioTfueL technology , which will be applied in this project, integrates biomass gasification with the addition of green hydrogen to produce renewable fuel. This approach is a clear example of how technological innovation can contribute to the transition to cleaner energy sources. In this context, the E-BioTfueL concept, which uses biomass suitable for producing advanced biofuels and e-fuels , is emerging as a comprehensive solution for the production of sustainable fuels for both the aviation and ground transportation sectors.
The success of this project depends on the collaboration between several actors, including Axens and Elyse Energy . For example, Axens , a company specializing in solutions for converting biomass into cleaner fuels, and Elyse Energy , an innovative French SME dedicated to the production of low-carbon molecules, have worked together to implement the necessary technologies. With the support of other entities such as IFPEN , Avril , and Total Energies , this joint collaboration promises to improve the fuel industry while reducing its carbon footprint.
