Agreement for ancillary works on blue methanol plant

Transition Industries LLC has signed a heads of agreement with Italian contractor Bonatti SpA to deliver key infrastructure for the Pacifico Mexinol green methanol project in Sinaloa. Under the agreement, which includes a fixed lump-sum price, Bonatti will handle detailed engineering, procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning and startup for upgrades to the Terminal Transoceánica de Topolobampo port facilities. The work will cover methanol loading operations for export, underground transfer pipelines, vapor recovery systems, and dual fiber optic cables linking the main plant to the port. Bonatti may also build a closed-loop water pipeline to recycle municipal wastewater for plant operations, avoiding freshwater use and reducing environmental impact.

Contract awarded for large scale green ammonia plant

Saudi power group ACWA Power has awarded a front-end engineering design (FEED) contract to a consortium of Spanish engineering firm Tecnicas Reunidas and Sinopec Guangzhou Engineering for the development of a large green hydrogen and ammonia project in Yanbu. The project would include 4 GW of electrolysis capacity, enabling the production of 400,000 t/a of green hydrogen, which will then be converted into green ammonia for export. The plant’s scope also includes water desalination infrastructure and an export terminal to support global distribution, though renewable generation assets are excluded from the current design phase.

NextChem wins contract for blue hydrogen project

NextChem subsidiary KT Tech has been awarded a licensing, process design package and engineering services contract by a major international energy company for the application of its proprietary NX eBlue™ (electric steam methane reforming) technology for the production of low-carbon hydrogen in the Southwest of the United States. NX eBlue™ technology, part of NextChem’s technological portfolio for syngas and hydrogen production, features an innovative electric steam methane reforming reactor along with a dedicated process scheme to produce low-carbon hydrogen. This technology significantly reduces CO2 production and incorporates integrated carbon capture to further minimise CO2 emissions, all allowing for operational flexibility and scalability.

Casale wins melamine contract

Casale has been awarded a contract to supply melamine technology by Anhui Haoyuan Chemical Group. The new melamine plant will feature Casale’s uLEM-N technology, with a design capacity of 60,000 t/a, and will be fully integrated into an urea plant operated by Anhui Haoyuan. This is the third project that the two companies have developed together, following the successful implementation of two 1,500 t/a ammonia synthesis loop plants based on Casale’s N-LOOP™ technology.
