Raven and EFT sign SAF and renewable diesel technology agreement
Renewable fuels firm Raven SR and Emerging Fuels Technology (EFT) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to integrate their respective technologies into an advanced system for producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and renewable diesel.
The resulting production platform will include Raven SR's patented Steam/CO2 Reformer process and EFT's patented Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and Maxx Jet™/ Maxx Diesel™ upgrading technology.
This combination will allow Raven SR to produce high-quality synthetic fuels at higher than currently feasible volumes within small, modular systems.
The Raven SR technology is a non-combustion thermal process for converting organic waste and landfill gas to hydrogen and Fischer-Tropsch synfuels.
"We expect to go to market on an accelerated timeframe for SAF and other renewable Fischer-Tropsch fuels by incorporating EFT's well-regarded catalyst/reactor technologies," said Matt Murdock, CEO of Raven SR. "The collaboration with EFT, particularly their 75 BPD and 500 BPD systems, which will match up well with our standard systems, will enable us to produce advanced fuels from waste on a local basis."
Under the MoU, Raven SR and EFT will work together to optimise their process to maximise production while further reducing emissions.
"This MoU represents a meeting of the minds and facilitates a means to produce premium synthetic Fischer-Tropsch fuels from waste materials," said Kenneth Agee, founder and president of EFT. "We share similar ambitions of accelerating the production of renewable fuels with negative carbon intensity on a cost-competitive basis. We are very impressed with the first-rate quality of Raven SR's syngas and the efficiency of its process."
