Methaforming and Aroforming are technologies to make renewable gasoline, renewable LPG or renewable BTX. Apart from being a renewable fuel technology, Methaforming reduces the carbon footprint of even fossil fuels, e.g. naphtha, thus being an energy transition or renewable energy technology. Methaforming can process low quality naphtha into high value marketable product with low capital cost. Methaforming removes sulfur and can replace hydrotreatment, naphtha fractionation (dehexanizer), catalytic reforming, isomerization and benzene removal. It can be used as the main process at a lighter-feed refinery or a gasoline blender, or to upgrade uniform or mixed naphtha feeds (including condensate) at a full range crude oil refinery. It enables traditional refiners to process excess naphtha, e.g. originating from light tight (shale) crude oil.

We can help you if you are interested in naphtha processing, wondering what to do with dry FCC gas, how to convert methanol and/or ethanol to gasoline, or break the ethanol blending wall. Methaforming is effective in the full C2-C11 range, including LPG, pentane, hexane, heptane and heavy naphthas.
