| Additional Information |
Pyrocell is a pyrolysis plant under development for the conversion of sawdust into pyrolysis oil with an expected capacity of 25 000 tonnes of bio-oil per year. Pyrocell AB is a joint venture between the Swedish wood processing company Setra and oil refinery Preem AB. The fast pyrolysis technology will be provided by Dutch companies TechnipFMC and BTG BioLiquids. The Swedish government’s “Climate Step” programme provided Setra with SEK 117M (EUR 12M) in funding to build the pyrolysis oil plant and establish a value chain between sawmills and the oil refinery industry. Ground-breaking at Setra’s Kastet sawmill took place in March 2020. The pyrolysis oil produced at Pyrocell will be further refined by Preem for use as a fossil-free fuel. The Pyrocell plant is expected to be operational by the end of 2021
