Nextchem bags contract to upgrade BSR’s hydrogen production unit in Vietnam
MAIRE’s subsidiary, NEXTCHEM (KT Tech), has secured a contract with Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical (BSR) to license and design a new hydrogen production unit at Vietnam’s Dung Quat Refinery. The unit, with a capacity of 22,676 Nm³/h, will utilize NX Reform technology, which enhances hydrogen production efficiency while allowing for CO2 capture to lower carbon emissions. KT Tech will also supply proprietary equipment for the steam methane reforming process during the construction phase.
MAIRE announces that NEXTCHEM (Sustainable Technology Solutions), through its subsidiary KT Tech, hydrogen technologies licensor, has been awarded by Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Joint Stock Company (BSR) the licensing and the Process Design Package (PDP) for a new hydrogen production unit, as part of the larger upgrading and expansion project of Dung Quat Refinery in Vietnam.
KT Tech will design the new hydrogen production unit with a capacity of 22,676 cubic metres per hour (Nm3/h), leveraging on its proprietary technology. This technology, which is part of NX Reform hydrogen technology portfolio enables cost-effective hydrogen production and offers the potential to reduce the carbon footprint by incorporating CO2 capture technology. It offers flexibility in feedstock and capacity, ensuring production adaptability. The solution is based on proven and widely adopted steam methane reforming methods, resulting in high operational efficiency. Once the project reaches the construction phase, KT TECH will also supply the proprietary equipment for the steam methane reforming process.
Alessandro Bernini, MAIRE CEO, commented, “We are proud of this important achievement, which confirms our excellent track-record in upgrading existing production plants to enhance efficiency and achieving lower consumptions, thanks to our leading technological know-how and unparalleled process engineering capabilities.”
