The first Avioxx small modular plant offers multiple benefits on its highly agile and nimble approach to chemical engineering. Its primary objective is to de-risk technology, delivering a smaller plant puts less capital at risk and offers significant benefits from a research and development perspective. Offering a module-based proposition also has its own applications, such as deployment in remote regions and airport based sustainable aviation fuel plants.
The module plant brings together the four core reactors in the Avioxx process in a minimal viable plant to produce syncrude from waste. The first stage leverages pyrolysis rather than gasification due to the ability for pyrolysis to operate efficiently at smaller scale. The module plants will be scalable with relative ease due to the nature of their design. Larger module plants offer better uptime due to the maintainability of different modules.
The following renders show off the design of this futuristic plant that has it’s own unique applications when deployed. The plant development is supported by our partners and equipment suppliers who are leaders in their space.
Gasifiers – Turning solid 1,500 tons of waste into Synthesis gas
Solid Oxide Fuel Cell – Turning synthesis gas into 375kw of electricity
Electrolysers – Splitting water into Hydrogen and Oxygen
Fischer-Tropsch – Turing Synthesis gas and Hydrogen into synthesized crude
