MIT spin-off Emvolon has partnered with Montauk Renewables to develop a commercial-scale pilot project that will convert biogas into green methanol in Texas.
Located at Montauk’s renewable gas production site at a landfill in Humble, the pilot will utilise Emvolon’s patented technology to produce up to 15,300 gallons of green methanol annually.
If the pilot is successful, the partners believe that a full-scale commercial plant could produce up to 2.4 million gallons of green methanol annually.
By repurposing car engines as modular chemical plants, Emvolon’s technology converts methane in biogas onsite into ready-to-use, easy-to-transport liquid green chemicals and fuels, such as green methanol and ammonia.
