The pumps will support a number of critical applications to convert waste oils and fats into renewable fuels with a lower carbon cost. Once complete, the new facility is expected to produce 3 billion liters of renewable fuels per year. The conversion will slash greenhouse gas emissions from the plant and help our customer and California to achieve their low-carbon targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the world moves to cleaner forms of energy, renewable fuels offer an immediate method to decarbonize the transition period. Once fully operational in 2024, the facility will produce renewable diesel, gasoline and sustainable jet fuel from used cooking and soybean oils, waste fats and greases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project is a landmark development and part of a portfolio for renewable and sustainable fuel production. The refinery conversion offers a dual benefit \u2013 simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas emissions at the site by 50% while providing lower-carbon fuels to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Critical oil recycle pumps supplied by Sulzer will enable the production of the renewable diesel, which is a key aspect of the project.&nbsp; Sulzer\u2019s technology solutions will also support general processing, hard condensate pumping and caustic transfer at the facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suzanne Thoma, Executive President of Sulzer, said: \u201cIt is exciting to be involved in this innovative project and the move to low-carbon, renewable fuels. Sulzer\u2019s flow solutions, specially engineered to fit the new performance parameters of the applications, will play a critical role in the facility and in achieving California\u2019s emissions reduction targets. We will also enable millions of tonnes of waste oils and fats to be put to productive use.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/news.dmaeuropa.com\/company\/sulzer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sulzer<\/a><\/strong><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>articles on the DMA News Portal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sulzer has supplied flow technology solutions to convert an existing US West Coast refinery into one of the world\u2019s largest renewable biofuels plants.
