• The Netherlands is steering away from use of biomass for heat and power, but has identified it as crucial for the production of fuels and chemicals

• Horizon Europe has a clear theme on biofuels and biochemicals

• Circularity will depend heavily on gasification based technologies

Opportunities for gasification

Solution towards 2050

In order to have 87% circular the system needs to changeImportant roles for:- Gasification- Dissolution- Pyrolysis

SCW Systems process

Unique components:

✓ Virtually all organic residue streams as possible feed

✓ > 90% conversion of organics to gas

✓ Quick, < 1 minute and energy efficient

✓ Energie efficient: 10-20% process input from the calorific value of the feedstocks

✓ “Hoge pressure cost advantage”: feed-in to the (inter-)national HTL-network, possibility for gas storage

Torrgas ambition → 25 PJ in 2030

Status Torrgas• 1 MW Demo DNV-GL (TRL 7)• Scaleable to 100 MW• 30 MW SNG Delfzijl in Basic Engineering fase • 50 MW green hydrogen permitting, FEED fase• Business model is the sale of licenses

Input streams (key is torrefaction)• Woody residues• Agricultural residues• Grass streams• Manure waste streams

Output possibilities• SNG/LNG/CNG• Hydrogen• MeOH and DME• Biokatalysis(syngas fermentation)• Connect to the steel industry


• RDF gasification using HTW technology.

• Gidara acquired the HTW technology

• Goal is to convert 175 kton per year into 90 kton MeOH

• Connect the CO2 to the OCAP

Rotterdam project is roughly 450 Meuro for 230 kton

The W2C consortium is currently evaluating drop-in biofuels rather thanblend fuels.

Enerkem


• Waste to Hydrogen in the planning in the south of the Netherlands

• Capacity will be 40 kton per year of hydrogen (1000 tpd of waste)

• Invest in the complete chain.• Taking in waste, separating minerals, metals and drying

• Torrefaction of waste to a uniform pellet

• Siemens gasification technology (EF) to produce syngas

• Produce hydrogen and CO2

• Process tested in Freiberg
