Eni, SABIC Ink JDA to Develop Technology For Natural Gas Conversion into Syngas

摘要

Milan-Eni and SABIC said they have signed a joint development agreement (JDA) to further develop an "innovative" technology for natural gas conversion into synthesis gas that can be further converted into high-value fuels and chemicals, such as methanol. The technology, which is based on the Short Contact Time Catalytic Partial Oxidation (SCT-CPO) of natural gas, was initially developed by Eni. It was coupled with SABIC's short contact time reactor research and development and its knowledge of the integration of synthesis gas generation into processes to produce derived chemicals.
