Gefn's technology for production and application of renewable specialty chemicals, solvents and intermediates offers dynamic and synergetic processes, which improve resource efficiencies and eliminate fossil-based feedstocks by localised valorisation of by-products and waste from processing of oleo-feedstocks and by utilisation of climate-neutral CO2. Gefn’s process intensification-based technology is applied as complete and modular plug-on processes or as separate equipment. The modularity minimises downtime during integration and enables modifications and relocation. Gefn’s process intensification-based technology enables dynamic, economical and localised production of green chemicals by conversion of glycerol, fatty acids and triglycerides through reactions with alcohols, carboxylic acids and climate-neutral CO2 into valuable carbonates and esters, subsequently used as specialty chemicals, solvents and intermediates. They can also serve as intermediates and be processed further into existing specialty and fine chemicals as well as for synthesising new types of materials. Gefn’s plug-on processes synergistically improve resource efficiencies and production economics in oleo-feedstock processing plants. The process intensification-based technology is applied as complete and modular plug-on processes or as separate equipment. The modularity minimises downtime during integration and enables modifications and relocation.The equipment allows flexibility in raw materials and products for optimisation of production costs and revenues. The technology enables a faster respond time to meet the needs of customers and the market.
