Notice Title

2393/DM - Fischer- Tropsch Plant

Notice Description

We are setting up a National Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC) and are looking to procure a wide range of new equipment focusing on bio-energy, renewable energy and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies. Flue gas from all combustion systems will be integrated into the on-site carbon capture plants. The captured C02 will be utilised in an on-site Fischer-Tropsch plant along with hydrogen generated onsite from renewable resources in order to produce green fuel for use in the turbines/engines for full-chain CCUS demonstration. As part of the equipment portfolio we are looking to procure a Fischer-Tropsch plant for aviation fuel production to broaden and support our extensive research, development and deployment activities at the centre. The plant will take C02 and H2 from storage and convert it to aviation liquid fuels. Additional information: All enquiries relating to this tender, along with the tender documents & returns, must be conducted & submitted via the In-tend site referred to above.
