D-CRBN selected Worley for engineering services at its planned renewable syngas demonstration plant in Antwerp. Electrically powered plasma technology is intended to convert carbon dioxide and biomethane into feedstock for chemicals and fuels.
Worley will provide design and safety and cost studies supporting construction. The demonstration unit is designed for 200 tonnes annually. An approximately 10,000-tonne commercial facility mentioned in the announcement is a future scale-up target, not the demonstration unit’s capacity.
In an IEA scenario, electricity could cost-effectively supply 33 percent of final energy use by 2035; projected import savings are not realized outcomes.
The utility’s long-term plan projects lower emissions despite rising electricity demand; its solar, battery and reverse-osmosis targets are not completed outcomes.
