In The Netherlands, GIDARA said its Energy’s HTW technology for gasification of solid waste to syngas has been selected by Aker Solutions, as one of several suppliers, to contribute to a feasibility study for the Equinor Mongstad Industrial Transformation (MIT) project. The aim is to convert solid waste and RDF to produce SAF, the company said. GIDARA aims to present the in-house HTW Gasification unit as part of the study, with the intention of converting solid waste feedstock to a clean syngas. This includes the pre-treatment of waste (drying/storing) and raw syngas cleaning/treatment. The clean and green syngas will then be used to produce SAF through a Fischer-Tropsch or, alternatively, a methanol/ethanol-to-jet process. “GIDARA Energy’s purpose is to help solve humanity’s waste problem, reduce CO2 emissions and thus combat climate change. We are delighted to be considered as a potential supplier to Aker Solutions and Equinor and to present our HTW technology,” said Norbert Kamp, CEO of GIDARA Energy.
