Green Carbon Development selects Axens Vegan® Technology for new  renewable fuels facility in Texas

Green Carbon Development, led by Process Technical Services (PTS), an established technical services  provider to the refining and process industries, announced today that it has selected Axens Vegan® technology for its upcoming renewable fuels facility.

Designed for a capacity of 10,500 barrels per stream day (BPSD), the Jasper project will deploy the Vegan®  hydroprocessing solution to flexibly produce both Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Renewable Diesel  (RD). This dual capability enables Green Carbon Development to respond to evolving market needs while  maximizing carbon abatement potential across the transportation sector.

“Integrating Axens’ Vegan® technology with Green Carbon’s platform creates a step-change in HEFA  performance,” said Gary Veazey, CEO of Process Technical Services. “The ability to flex between SAF  and renewable diesel production, coupled with our ability to reduce hydrogen demand and improve yields,  gives our project a clear advantage in both economics and carbon intensity. Axens’ deep expertise and process  guarantees provide the confidence we need to deliver a world-class facility.”

Strategic Advantages
The facility will leverage PTS’s extensive experience in plant design, operations, and startup services along  with expertise in agricultural sourcing and feedstock logistics provided by the identified feedstock partner. By  integrating Axens’ proven technology, the venture is positioned to become a cornerstone of the region’s clean  energy economy.
“With this award, Axens further strengthens its track record for Vegan® technology globally as well  as in the Americas. We are proud to partner with Green Carbon on the development of this critical renewable fuels project and look forward to another successful deployment of Vegan® technology.” — Tina Craft, CEO,  Axens Americas

Technology Leadership
Axens will provide the technology license, catalysts, proprietary equipment, operator training, and  technical services for the project. Axens brings decades of innovation in renewable fuels, beginning with  Esterfip™ biodiesel technology — winner of the 2007 Kirkpatrick Award for Chemical Engineering  Achievement — and advancing to today’s Vegan® solution, a globally recognized pathway for producing SAF  and HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oils) via the HEFA process. With numerous commercial references worldwide, Vegan® enables producers to scale SAF and RD production while reliably meeting decarbonization  targets.
