Green Carbon Development, led by Process Technical Services (PTS), a technical services provider to the refining and process industries, announced that it has selected Axens Vegan® technology for its upcoming renewable fuels facility.

Designed for a maximum capacity of 10 500 bpd, the project will deploy the Vegan hydroprocessing solution to flexibly produce both sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and renewable diesel (RD). This dual capability enables Green Carbon Development to respond to evolving market needs while maximising carbon abatement potential across the transportation sector.

Strategic advantages

The facility will leverage PTS’s experience in plant design, operations, and start-up services along with expertise in agricultural sourcing and feedstock logistics provided by the identified feedstock partner. Axens will provide the technology licence, catalysts, proprietary equipment, operator training, and technical services for the project.

“Integrating Axens' Vegan technology with Green Carbon's platform creates a step-change in HEFA performance. The ability to flex between SAF and RD production, coupled with our ability to reduce hydrogen demand and improve yields, gives our project a clear advantage in both economics and carbon intensity. Axens' deep expertise and process guarantees provide the confidence we need to deliver a world-class facility,” said Gary Veazey, CEO of Process Technical.

 

“With this award, Axens further strengthens its track record for Vegan technology globally as well as in the Americas. We are proud to partner with Green Carbon on the development of this critical renewable fuels project and look forward to another deployment of this technology,” added Tina Craft, CEO, Axens Americas.
