Decarbonising transportation at scale / Sustainable drop-in transportation fuels and carbon removal
What we do
Our patented technology converts biomass waste into a powerful and clean drop-in, low-carbon Advanced fuel (or also known as second-generation biofuel).
At its core, our technology uses a mature process known since the 1980s. It has been through years of dedicated R&D that we have been able to harness the technology and reach its commercial and scalable potential.
The novel conversion technology produces a waste derived bio synthetic fuel that complies with diesel regulations such as EN590 and ASTM. Furthermore, we can produce this fuel efficiently at low-cost and currently with 85% fewer GHGs than traditional fossil-based fuel production. Our aim is to continue reducing the carbon intensity of our fuels, and confident we can produce carbon-neutral and -negative fuels.
Our plants are scalable, self-sufficient, cost-effective and profitable commercial opportunities, all while remaining sustainable and green.
Company's story
Efficient
Our technology uses an efficient one-step process for converting biomass into synthetic waste-derived diesel, reducing the amount of energy needed and therefore reducing the cost per litre.
Sustainable & Green
Our Advanced drop-in ULSD fuel currently has 85% fewer GHGs than traditional fossil-based fuel, making it a sustainable and climate-friendly solution.
Scalable
Our plants are designed as modular infrastructures, allowing it's size and therefore production to be scaled up as required. Plant production can be as small as 150 litres/hour to 2,400 litres/hour and beyond.
Cost-Effective & Viable
Our efficient conversion process means XFuel is able to produce high quality fuel at a low cost, that is comparable to fossil fuel. We can therefore deliver profitable and viable projects regardless of whether we are able to use subsidies or ROCs.
Decentralised & Off-Grid
Given the necessary feedstock, our plants are self-sufficient and therefore able to be placed in remote off-grid locations. Our technology is ideal for industries that committed to reducing their impact and improve their energy stability, such as in mining.
Clean & Powerful
The fuel that we produce is clean, powerful, and fits within diesel regulations such as EN590 and ASTM. Our fuel has a higher Cetane number, requiring less of it than other fuels to produce the same amount of energy.
In 2010 we set a challenge to produce an alternative fuel which could compete with fossil fuels from both an environmental and economic perspective. In this time we have developed and patented breakthrough technology, which successfully achieves this and more.
Through innovative development, optimisation of process, design of reactor and components, the construction of a pilot plant and the consistent analysis and testing of chemicals and fuels, we have created a commercial ready process. The technology can convert various organic waste materials into a low-carbon drop-in waste derived Advanced fuel. Furthermore, we are able to undercut the costs of fuels from fossil origin, while remaining environmentally friendly with current GHG savings of 85% in its production. Our pilot plant is located in Spain, with a production capacity of 150 litres/hour of fuel. The site is being used as an R&D and feedstock analysis plant for future projects.
The company vision is to become the sustainable fuel company for the future, providing low-carbon and clean fuel to distributors and consumers around the globe in industries such as maritime, aviation, HGVs and consumer cars.
