中国石化新闻网讯 据ICIS网站1月4日消息 美国异丁醇生产商Gevo周一表示，已选择Koch项目解决方案公司为其正在融资的一些扩建项目提供前端工程和设计（FEED）服务。 Koch还将提供项目执行管理服务。 在2020年早些时候，Gevo聘请了花旗集团全球市场部为其运营和扩张项目融资。Koch将参与那些由花旗集团资助的项目。 Gevo在明尼苏达州Luverne的一家工厂里发酵糖生产乙醇和异丁醇，其暂停了工厂的乙醇部分，但继续生产异丁醇。 该公司还在德克萨斯州的西尔斯比有一个示范工厂，将异丁醇转化为可再生的喷气燃料、可再生的异辛烷和可再生的异辛烯。 Gevo希望建造更多的下游工厂。 去年12月底，该公司表示，获得了购买南达科他州普雷斯顿湖附近土地的选择权，用于一个可再生燃料项目。如果建成，该项目产能将达4500万加仑/年（1.7亿升/年）。 Gevo还可能在Luverne的厂址旁建一座工厂。 关于扩建项目的FEED部分，Koch项目解决方案公司总裁Paul Switzer表示：“Gevo和Koch项目解决方案公司建立了有益的合作关系，将以有意义的规模提供这项宝贵的技术。这完全符合Koch公司的愿景，有助于从现有原料中获得卓越的社会效益。” 王磊 摘译自 ICIS 原文如下： US Gevo picks engineer for renewable fuel plants Gevo has picked Koch Project Solutions to provide the front-end engineering and design (FEED) for some expansion projects it is in the process of financing, the US-based isobutanol producer said on Monday. Koch will also provide project-execution management services. Earlier in 2020, Gevo hired Citigroup Global Markets to help it finance its operations and expansion projects. Koch will be involved in those projects that would be financed by Citigroup. Gevo ferments sugar to produce ethanol and isobutanol at a plant in Luverne, Minnesota. It had suspended the ethanol portion of the plant, but it continues to make isobutanol. The company also has a demonstration plant in Silsbee, Texas, that converts isobutanol into renewable jet fuel, renewable iso-octane and renewable iso-octene. Gevo wants to build more of these downstream plants. Late in December, the company said it obtained an option to buy land near Lake Preston in South Dakota state for a renewable fuels project. If built, the project would produce 45m gal/year (170m litres/year). Gevo may also build a plant next to its site in Luverne, the company said. In regards to the FEED portion of the expansion projects, Paul Switzer, president of Koch Project Solutions, said, "Gevo and Koch Project Solutions have forged a beneficial partnership that will deliver this valuable technology at a meaningful scale. It fits well into the Koch vision to help deliver superior societal benefits from existing feedstocks." |
