Bussiness Ideas

The business concept revolves around developing and commercializing an innovative co-processing technology that blends bio-oil with conventional Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO) in existing Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) and Hydrocracker units. This approach leverages current refinery infrastructure with minimal modifications, ensuring a low-CAPEX and highly scalable solution for integrating renewable carbon into traditional fuel streams. Through the use of tailored reactor internals and adaptive catalysts, the process addresses the challenges of bio-oil, such as oxygen content and stability, while maintaining high conversion efficiency, yield, and product quality. The outcome is the production of sustainable transportation fuels, including gasoline and diesel, enriched with renewable carbon, thereby reducing reliance on fossil-only feedstocks. This model provides dual benefits: economic competitiveness through lower operating costs, as bio-oil is cheaper than conventional feed, and environmental sustainability, contributing directly to decarbonization and compliance with renewable energy mandates. The technology also facilitates in-situ coupling of biorefineries with conventional refineries, maximizing utility footprints and minimizing additional resource requirements. With the global oil and gas industry moving toward net-zero and a market growing at a projected 15.5?GR, this concept positions i as a transformative, future-ready solution for green refining.
