TECHNOLOGIES

We are managing a portfolio of several technological initiatives among the three macro areas of our roadmap towards energy transition, in the field of green chemistry, circular economy, biofuels, capturing and recovery of CO2, in addition to constant research activities on international projects.

Discover the technologies of our roadmap towards energy transition.

Low carbon hydrogen

Hydrogen

Hydrogen is establishing itself as a key element for the energy transition. Hydrogen, in fact, is at the center of the challenges related to global warming. Its characteristics make hydrogen a fundamental energy carrier, as it is usable as a fuel and as a feedstock in many industrial processes, it is storable and transportable over long distances.

H2S Cracking

KT-Kinetics Technology S.p.A., a Company of Maire Tecnimont Group, in more than 10 years of R&D activity, has developed a proprietary catalyst and plant architecture for the conversion of H2S to Hydrogen and Sulphur by means of the SOAPTM process (Selective Oxidative Autothermal Process), which represents an innovative and more efficient way for recovering Sulphur. It is based on a partial oxidative reaction that shows better performances compared to current market solutions

DCCD™ Technology

The DCCD™ is an innovative gas purification technology able to valorize Natural Gas fields with high content of CO2 and H2S, allowing to unlock additional valuable gas resources for the market.

Renewable Energy to Fuels and Chemicals

The initiative under development will allow us to produce syngas and liquid products (methane, methanol, etc.) utilizing Green Hydrogen, bio-genic CO2 and/or CO2 feedstock from industrial plants.

Circular Economy

MyReplast® Upcycling

With a global scenario which is boosting with unprecedent strength towards higher goals for plastics waste recycling and towards the discovery of new, consolidated and industrial markets for the recycled polymers, we patented a new technology which allows to revert the common and usual waste-to-market approach into a “market-to-waste” approach.

Waste to Chemicals

The energy transition towards more sustainable production systems has to go through innovative technology aiming at GHG emission reduction and at a better exploitation of resources. On this regard municipal solid waste (MSW), refuse derived fuel (RDF) as well as non-recyclable plastic waste (PW), may be considered a sort of novel and sustainable hydrocarbon allowing to build a new chemistry.

The District Circluar Model

The Green Circular District® Model

NextChem, Maire Tecnimont Group’s company for energy transition, has developed a model of Green Circular District® which integrates technologies for decarbonization and recycling, reducing incineration and landfilling.

Plastics pyrolysis

There is a residual fraction of plastic from mechanical recycling plants that cannot be mechanically recycled and is usually sent to incinerators or disposed of in landfills. We are studying an optimized alternative pyrolysis process to convert this plastic residue into a valuable fuel.

GCB Polymers Industrial Plant

NextChem is a partner, through Met T&S Management Ltd., in GCB group of companies, a Joint Venture that develops upcycling processes of “near to prime”, post-industrial, post-consumer waste and recycled polymers to obtain high value-added qualified polymer products for specific industrial applications in Kizad, Abu Dhabi. 

Green Green

2g ethanol

2-G Ethanol

We are working on the valorization of Ethanol, today a main raw material for the production of a "second generation" (2G) technology for production of Ethanol and/or other chemicals starting from lignocellulosic biomass.

Bio-Diesel Card

Bio-diesel

Biodiesel produced as Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) derived by transesterification of fats with methanol is a consolidated technology widely adopted around the world to process Vegetable oils as Soyabean, rapeseed or palm to produce 1st generation Biofuels.

Bio - Oleo Card

Bio-OleoChemicals: Oleic Acid for Bio-Lubricants

We have in place a partnership together with So.G.I.S., for the supply of engineering and procurement services for the construction of a production unit in the Municipality of Sospiro (Cremona, Italy), for the production of oleic acid from residual fats through a process of wet fractionation of fatty acids.

PLA

The gradual replacement of fossil plastic with bio-plastics in some markets is already ongoing, driven by legislation and market requests.
