📋 Tender Overview
The Project FUREC (FUse, REuse,ReCycle) transforms non-recyclable solid waste streams into hydrogen and provides circular feedstock to the chemical industry. First, the waste is converted into pellets in a waste treatment plant by sorting, drying and pelletising. The dry pellets are then sent to Chemelot, a major chemical cluster, for conversion into hydrogen. Finally, this hydrogen is supplied to OCI N.V.’s ammonia production plants. The FUREC process uniquely combines torrefaction, milling and entrained flow gasification, followed by the transformation of CO (Carbon monoxide) and water, through synthetic gas, to CO2 and hydrogen. The FUREC plant will produce 54 000 tonnes of hydrogen per year while avoiding 101% of greenhouse gas emissions compared to the reference scenario during the first ten years of operation.
