In 2018, Jacobs (Jacobs Engineering Group Inc.), conducted an in-depth review of Anellotech’s greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) Lifecycle Analysis (LCA) using its own industry-accepted refinery and petrochemical models. Jacobs verified that renewably-sourced Bio-TCat products enable significant GHG reductions when compared to identical chemicals currently made from crude oil.
The results found that CO2 emissions for producing paraxylene and benzene from pulpwood using Anellotech’s process are estimated to be 70-80% lower than emissions for identical petro-based chemicals made from crude oils. If Bio-TCat products are used to make renewable gasoline and distillate fuel blendstocks, the reduction potential exceeds 90%.

Plas-Tcat: Anellotech’s Plas-TCat™ LCA is regularly assessed as process development proceeds. Current analysis show a strong reduction in CO2 emissions compared to both thermal pyrolysis recycling and to conventional naphtha cracking monomer production and incineration processes.
