據(jù)烴加工4月27日消息，雷普索爾將加入Ecoplanta項(xiàng)目，與總部位于蒙特利爾的技術(shù)領(lǐng)先公司Enerkem和全球水和廢物管理專(zhuān)家Agbar一起，在西班牙塔拉戈納建設(shè)一座廢料化工廠(chǎng)。

　　根據(jù)合資企業(yè)Ecoplanta分子回收解決方案，該工廠(chǎng)將處理來(lái)自周邊地區(qū)的約40萬(wàn)噸不可回收的城市固體垃圾，并生產(chǎn)22萬(wàn)噸甲醇。

　　這種甲醇將被用作生產(chǎn)循環(huán)材料或先進(jìn)生物燃料的原材料，有助于避免20萬(wàn)噸二氧化碳的排放，并減少最終進(jìn)入垃圾填埋場(chǎng)的廢物。這家多能源公司的目標(biāo)是到2050年成為一家凈零排放公司，而此次聯(lián)盟則是朝著這個(gè)目標(biāo)又邁進(jìn)了一步。

　　該工廠(chǎng)是伊比利亞半島的首個(gè)此類(lèi)工廠(chǎng)，將由雷普索爾和Agbar共同管理，而Enerkem將是關(guān)鍵技術(shù)合作伙伴。在2022年第一季度做出項(xiàng)目最終投資決定后，該工廠(chǎng)預(yù)計(jì)將于2025年投入運(yùn)營(yíng)。該項(xiàng)目已經(jīng)獲得了地方政府《綜合環(huán)境授權(quán)書(shū)》和《環(huán)境影響報(bào)告書(shū)》的批準(zhǔn)。

　　雷普索爾在塔拉戈納有一個(gè)領(lǐng)先的工業(yè)綜合體，這將有助于各設(shè)施之間的協(xié)同效應(yīng)。這種石化工廠(chǎng)是西班牙同類(lèi)企業(yè)中最重要的。在那里生產(chǎn)的許多類(lèi)型的聚合物中，用于汽車(chē)領(lǐng)域的高度專(zhuān)業(yè)化的產(chǎn)品（例如高抗沖擊性聚合物）非常突出。

　　雷普索爾化學(xué)品執(zhí)行董事Jose Luis Bernal表示:“我們很高興能與相關(guān)的廢物管理和創(chuàng)新技術(shù)合作伙伴共同努力，展示我們對(duì)循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)的承諾，并加強(qiáng)我們?cè)?030年前回收20%聚烯烴生產(chǎn)的承諾。”

　　該工廠(chǎng)將利用氣化技術(shù)將城市固體廢物轉(zhuǎn)化為甲醇等高附加值產(chǎn)品，由于其異質(zhì)性這是一個(gè)非常復(fù)雜的過(guò)程。Enerkem公司擁有這項(xiàng)最先進(jìn)的專(zhuān)利技術(shù)，在其位于埃德蒙頓（加拿大艾伯塔省）的商業(yè)示范工廠(chǎng)經(jīng)過(guò)十多年從試點(diǎn)到示范到商業(yè)規(guī)模的嚴(yán)格規(guī)模升級(jí)后，該技術(shù)首次在工業(yè)規(guī)模上進(jìn)行了測(cè)試，并在瓦雷納斯（加拿大魁北克）正在建設(shè)的新設(shè)施。Enerkem首席執(zhí)行官兼首席財(cái)務(wù)官Dominique Boies表示:“我們很榮幸地歡迎雷普索爾成為我們的合作伙伴，進(jìn)一步支持我們?cè)谒昙{的工廠(chǎng)。他們?cè)谠撔袠I(yè)的強(qiáng)大專(zhuān)業(yè)知識(shí)，加上Agbar的專(zhuān)業(yè)知識(shí)，將使我們能夠利用我們獨(dú)特的技術(shù)，將廢物轉(zhuǎn)化為可再生塑料或先進(jìn)生物燃料，帶來(lái)眾多好處。”

　　有了這一重大投資，該項(xiàng)目已被選為進(jìn)入歐盟創(chuàng)新基金的第二階段，該階段側(cè)重于高度創(chuàng)新的技術(shù)和在歐洲實(shí)現(xiàn)顯著減排的大型旗艦項(xiàng)目。

　　Repsol partners to build waste to chemicals plant in Tarragona

　　Repsol will join the Ecoplanta project, together with the technology leader Montreal-based firm Enerkem and Agbar, a global expert in water and waste management, to build a waste to chemicals plant in Tarragona, Spain.

　　Under the joint venture Ecoplanta Molecular Recycling Solutions, the plant will process around 400,000 tons of non-recyclable municipal solid waste from its surrounding regions and produce 220,000 tons of methanol.

　　This methanol will be used as raw material to produce circular materials or advanced biofuels, contributing to avoid 200,000 tons of CO2 and reducing the waste that ends up in the landfill. This alliance is a further step towards the multi-energy company's ambition to become a net-zero emissions company by 2050.

　　The plant, the first of its kind in the Iberian Peninsula, will be co-managed by Repsol and Agbar, whilst Enerkem will be the key technological partner. The plant is projected to be in operation in 2025 after taking the project’s final investment decision by the first quarter of 2022. The project already obtained the Integrated Environmental Authorization and the approval of the Environmental Impact Statement from the local authorities.

　　Repsol has a leading industrial complex in Tarragona, a factor that will allow for synergies among the facilities. This petrochemical complex is the most important of its kind in Spain. Among the many types of polymers produced there, the range of highly specialized products for the automotive sector, such as high impact resistant polymers, stands out.

　　According to Jose Luis Bernal, Repsol’s Executive Director for Chemicals: “We are very pleased to join forces with relevant waste management and innovative technology partners, showing our commitment to circular economy and reinforcing our commitment to recycle 20% of our polyolefins production by 2030”.

　　The plant will use gasification technology to transform municipal solid waste, a very complex process due to its heterogeneous nature, into high value-added products such as methanol. Enerkem is the owner of this patented state-of-the-art technology, the first to be tested on an industrial scale, after a rigorous scaleup from pilot to demonstration to commercial scale that took place over a decade, in its commercial demonstration plant in operation in Edmonton (Alberta, Canada), and a new facility under construction in Varennes (Québec, Canada). The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Enerkem, Dominique Boies, mentioned: “We are proud to welcome Repsol as a partner to further support our Tarragona facility. Their strong expertise of the industry, coupled with that of Agbar, will enable us to feature the numerous benefits associated with our unique disruptive technology, transforming waste into renewable plastics or advanced biofuels.”

　　With this significant investment, the project has been selected to move into stage 2 of the European Union Innovation Fund, which focuses on highly innovative technologies and big flagship projects within Europe to bring on significant emission reductions.
