Novozymes launches Quara® LowP for renewable diesel feedstock
pre-treatment
Novozymes, a global leader in biosolutions, marks a
significant milestone in the renewable diesel and SAF (Sustainable
Aviation Fuel) industry with the launch of Quara® LowP, an
enzymatic solution designed to transform the feedstock
pre-treatment process.
Copenhagen, Denmark – 9 November, 2023. As the
world seeks sustainable alternatives to traditional fuels,
renewable diesel and SAF production have taken center stage. By
2030, vegetable oils are projected to account for over 40% of
global feedstock used in renewable diesel and SAF production.
However, producers have long grappled with challenges related to
feedstock availability, pricing fluctuations, and the
ever-increasing market demand.
To address these pressing issues, Novozymes has leveraged its
extensive experience in enzymatic degumming, which has resulted in
Quara LowP, an innovative solution that gives customers flexibility
to process mixed feedstocks without negatively impacting their
bottom line.
"This innovation is a testament to our commitment to sustainable
solutions for the renewable diesel and SAF industry. Quara LowP
offers producers the flexibility to process blends of feedstocks
resulting in increased efficiency, reduced operating costs, and
lowered environmental impact. It is a great contribution to the
industry and a reflection of Novozymes' dedication to rethinking
tomorrow" said Hans Ole Klingenberg, VP Marketing, Ag &
Industrial biosolutions at Novozymes.
A sustainable solution for a growing demand Quara LowP
facilitates the efficient processing of HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable
Oil) and HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) feedstocks.
By pretreating these feedstocks with Quara LowP, producers can
achieve higher yields and significantly lower operational costs,
all while reducing the environmental footprint of their
operations.
This innovation holds profound significance for the HVO and SAF
industry:
- Increased efficiency: HVO/HEFA feedstock producers now
have a means to process blends of vegetable oils with other lipid
feedstocks without compromising yield or incurring additional
operating costs. The current practice of overusing bleaching
earth/bleaching clay to address contaminants in vegetable oils when
blending with waste oils is a thing of the past. Quara LowP offers
a more efficient and cost-effective solution.
- Economic benefits: With Quara LowP, producers can enjoy
increased yields and lower operating costs, overcoming process
inefficiencies.
- Environmental impact: The industry can benefit from a
greener operation, with reduced waste handling hazards and lower
water consumption, aligning with the global sustainability
goals.
As Novozymes ventures into the renewable diesel/SAF industry,
which is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR)
of 12% from 2023 to 2027, Quara LowP is set to play a pivotal role
in driving the industry's growth, sustainability, and
efficiency.
