(Finance) – MAIRE announces that NEXTCHEM (Sustainable Technology Solutions business unit), through its subsidiary MyRechemical, leader in waste-to-chemical solutions, was awarded one feasibility study for the integration of proprietary Waste-to-Syngas technology into a large-scale conversion plant that transforms municipal solid waste into Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). This is the first major project in the United Arab Emirates aimed at producing up to 120,000 tonnes per year of SAF.
MyRechemical will provide the gasification unit to transform solid waste streams into synthesis gas (syngas) which will then be converted into low-carbon ethanol and then into SAF.
“We are happy to participate in the first waste-to-chemicals initiative in the UAE,” he commented Giacomo Rispoli, CEO of MyRechemical. “This result further confirms our commitment to the valorization of alternative raw materials, concretely contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint in the aviation sector. All in a country like the United Arab Emirates, where we boast a long-standing presence in the transformation of natural resources and which is now open to sustainable innovation”.
