Topsoe and BioVeritas to accelerate second-generation renewable fuels production

Published by , Editorial Assistant

Topsoe has entered into an agreement with Texas based, BioVeritas, a sustainable fuels and chemicals technology company commercialising a platform to unlock advantaged feedstocks for existing infrastructure. The agreement will enable fuel producers to license Topsoe’s HydroFlex® technology alongside the BioVeritas ProcessTM to produce renewable fuels from second-generation feedstocks, such as woody biomass, corn stover, wheat straw, and similar waste and residual biomass.

The BioVeritas Process efficiently converts second-generation feedstocks to advantaged intermediates, called KEYTones™ that can be processed by Topsoe’s HydroFlex technology to unlock production of renewable fuels using second-generation feedstock.

Yassir Ghiyati, Chief Commercial Officer, at Topsoe said: “Through this agreement we see a clear opportunity for HydroFlex and the BioVeritas Process, to expand feedstock pathways that can help make more SAF and renewable fuel projects viable and support broader deployment globally.”

Alan Del Paggio, Chief Commercial Officer at BioVeritas, added: “Fuel producers are looking for solutions that work within the infrastructure they already have. Pairing the BioVeritas Process with Topsoe’s HydroFlex technology creates a practical, near-term pathway to bring second-generation feedstocks into production at scale. We’re excited to work with Topsoe to help customers unlock meaningful new volumes of renewable fuel.”

As global demand for SAF and renewable fuels continues to rise, expanding the feedstock base is critical to accelerating project development and meeting growing energy demand. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), around 1 580 million t of biomass feedstock may be available for SAF production, enough to support just over 300 million t of SAF by 2050, if effective conversion technology is deployed.
