Green Carbon selects Axens tech for Texas facility

Refining and process industries technical provider Green Carbon Development announced that it has selected Axes Vegan technology for upcoming Texas renewable fuels facility.

With a nameplate capacity of 10,500 barrels per stream day (BPSD), the project titled Jasper will flexibly produce both sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel.

“Integrating Axens’ Vegan technology with Green Carbon’s platform creates a step-change in HEFA performance,” said Gary Veazey, CEO of Process Technical Services who leads Green Carbon Development.

“The ability to flex between SAF and renewable diesel production, coupled with our ability to reduce hydrogen demand and improve yields, gives our project a clear advantage in both economics and carbon intensity. Axens’ deep expertise and process guarantees provide the confidence we need to deliver a world-class facility.”

The facility will leverage PTS’s experience in plant design, operations, and startup services along with expertise in agricultural sourcing and feedstock logistics provided by the identified feedstock partner.

“With this award, Axens further strengthens its track record for Vegan technology globally as well as in the Americas. We are proud to partner with Green Carbon on the development of this critical renewable fuels project and look forward to another successful deployment of Vegan technology,” said Tina Craft, CEO, Axens Americas.

Axens said it will provide technology license, catalysts, proprietary equipment, operator training, and technical services for the project.
