Located in the port of Antwerp, the facility will produce 300 kilotonnes annually of high-quality polyethylene and polypropylene, using green methanol instead of fossil-based feedstock.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Wood has been granted a multi-million euro front-end engineering design (FEED) contract, covering the crucial initial phase of the project. The plant will be fully powered by renewable energy and designed to operate with high energy efficiency. According to Vioneo, the resulting plastics will be fully traceable, segregated from fossil-based materials, and even carbon-negative. They are intended as high-quality drop-in alternatives that can be used in existing production processes without any modifications.<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Alternative to fossil-based value chains<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u2018Vioneo is proving that large-scale, cleaner production of plastics from green methanol is economically viable,\u2019 said CEO Alex Hogan. \u2018This project gives Europe a real opportunity to lead the global transition of the \u20ac5 trillion chemicals and materials sector. Our partnership with Wood is a critical step in realizing that ambition.\u2019<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Wood also highlighted the strategic importance of the project. \u2018Demand for fossil-free plastics is rapidly increasing in Europe,\u2019 said Gerry Traynor, President Eastern Hemisphere Projects at Wood. \u2018With this initiative, Vioneo is accelerating CO\u2082 reductions in the European plastics industry.\u2019<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Vioneo is part of A.P. Moller Holding, the parent company of the A.P. Moller Group. The company\u2019s founding aligns with the Danish group\u2019s broader strategy to promote green methanol production and support sustainable solutions for the plastics sector. Vioneo emphasized that the use of green methanol as feedstock does not impact food supply chains.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em><strong>industrylinqs<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iranpolymer\/Baspar Danish company Vioneo has awarded engineering and consulting firm Wood a contract to design the world\u2019s first industrial-scale plant for fossil-free plastics.
