Biomass-to-fuels & catalysis

Connecting renewable feedstocks to useful gases, liquids and chemical intermediates.

Nova is evaluating pathways that combine thermochemical conversion, gas conditioning and catalytic upgrading. Product specifications, energy use, catalyst life and integration with downstream users guide the commercial questions.

Development focus

  • Biomass-derived gas and liquid intermediates
  • Catalytic upgrading and process integration
  • Syngas conditioning and utilization
  • Feedstock-to-product pathway evaluation

Questions that guide the work

01

What downstream specification must be reached?

02

What impurities and catalyst deactivation risks need investigation?

03

How do yield, energy demand and product value interact?
