New Microchannel Reactor Model Increases Production Capacity and Lowers Costs
Velocys, a sustainable fuel company, has launched its AlphaCore 800 microchannel reactor model to increase production capacity and lower unit costs for commercial sustainable aviation fuel projects. The new reactor produces up to 800 barrels per day of FT fluids, doubling the capacity of its predecessor, AlphaCore 400. This development is expected to simplify the FT island and reduce associated equipment requirements, making it an attractive option for larger SAF projects. The launch was announced by Velocys, as reported by PR Newswire.
