| Technology Brief |
Our process is Power-to-Liquid (PtL). Renewable Energy is used to split water vapor (H2O) to hydrogen (H2) and oxygen. In this first plant, E-fuel 1, Hydrogen from electrolysis is mixed with carbon monoxide (CO) in the waste gas to form syngas, which is converted to normal paraffinic hydrocarbon liquids in a Fischer-Tropsch reactor. Hydrocarbon gas and unconverted CO2 from the FT-reactor is converted to syngas in a POX-rWGS-reactor, a combination of a POX reactor and a reversed water gas shift reactor. In E-fuel 1, a modified POX-rWGS syngas reactor that converts 100% CO2 to syngas will be tested and qualified for use in E-fuel 2. E-fuel 2 will be able to use syngas from 100 % CO to 100 % CO2.
For E-fuel 1, the paraffinic FT liquids will be upgraded to wax or hydrocracked to jet-fuel and/or premium diesel in addition to some naphtha.

| Additional Information |
The E-fuel 1project is currently in the FEED phase and the FID date is expected to take place at the end of 2021 and production commence in 2024.3
If the demonstration is successful, the plan is to build E-fuel 2, a 150,000 t/y plant at the same location. Additional plants of similar sizes are also planned to be built in the Nordic countries after this.
