Our Technology:

  • 1: Direct Methane to Methanol (DMTM), new non-reforming process, reactor
  • 2: Industry’s lowest cost SAF (new non-FT, provides > 95 % carbon efficiency)
  • 3:  Conventional diesel produced at lower CAPEX + OPEX than classical refining.
  • 15,000 ft2 of lab space + 20 acres for reference plant on Ohio River
  • We replace 100-year-old reforming and Fischer-Tropsch with Catalyte’s smaller footprint, no water feed, dirtier gas feed capable new process and reactor.

Our Advantage:

  • Solved DMTM partial oxidation of NG: enables small equipment footprint
  • Onsite methane vent abatement to methanol: reduces GHG
  • DMTM & non-stochastic SAF @ < 600 TPD: lower cost fuels than oil refineries
  • Our DMTM handles C2, CO2, O2 and N2: expands feed to pre-pipeline CH4
  • Building the new fuel landscape: to N. America (& Appalachia) from OPEC, to medium (< 2,500 bbl/d), capital safe, away from capital risky (overruns) mega plants (> 140,000 bbl/day).

Team that’s Delivered

 Dr. Chris Papile (ExxonMobil/Technip, Thyssenkrupp), Bill Maloney (well-known driller), Dr. Lauren Sammes (Coors Distinguished Professor, Colorado School of Mines), Dr. Bongani Nkosi (Head R&D, SASOL Fischer-Tropsch), Dr. Rheaume (inventor of multi-functional fuel cells for aircraft and 60 patents) and Wassim Estephan (CEO Thyssenkrupp Middle East).

Patented Technology and Industrial Demonstrations

 

New Direct (DMTM) Methanol (Bunker Fuel) starting from RNG, shale and sustainable Coal Mine Methane (a demonstration plant in Appalachia);

Lowest-cost Sustainable and Synthetic Aviation Fuel (demo planned for Ohio River);

the very practical market of conventional diesel without refining, rather DMTM then the new Catalyte non-FT process.

Care through EngineeringTriple Bottom Line

Environmental: Methane GHG abatement

Humanity: new jobs (Appalachia, USA, N. America) through CO2-free fuels [Methanol (bunker), SAF, Diesel]

Economic: Bankable, profitable (products 25x more valuable than feed), excellent IRR, fits with Appalachia.

Coal Mine Methane (CATF)

Headquarters: West Virginia, USA

Development Labs: Wisconsin
