GPS Renewables partners with STEER Engineering to build cutting-edge bio-processor
GPS Renewables has partnered with STEER Engineering to develop a cutting-edge bio-processor for the BioCNG sector. The collaboration will focus on creating high-efficiency solutions for processing agro-residue and biomass feedstocks, enhancing biofuel yields. This innovative bio-processor is engineered to optimize performance while reducing costs, supporting India’s sustainable energy goals by advancing the biofuel industry.
GPS Renewables, a leading full-stack technology and engineering company focussing on clean fuels, has partnered with STEER Engineering, a global leader in advanced materials and extruder technology, to build cutting edge solutions for the BioCNG sector. This partnership promises to bring innovation and sustainable solutions to the forefront of the industry
As part of the partnership, STEER Engineering will develop a state-of-the-art 2.5+ tons per hour bio-processor designed specifically for agro-residue and biomass feedstocks such as paddy straw, mustard stalk, cotton stalk, maize, and Napier grass. STEER’s bio-processors will streamline the pre-conditioning of the agro-residue and biomass feedstocks, leading to enhanced biofuel yields.
The collaborative effort aims to enhance the efficiency of feed processing and overall output, presenting a robust solution for the BioCNG industry that is MADE IN INDIA. The newly designed processor is meticulously engineered to maximize performance and minimize lifecycle costs, poised to revolutionize GPS Renewables’ projects and the broader biofuel sector.
The gross agro-residue and surplus biomass potential generated in India is estimated at nearly 700 million tonnes a year and India has ambitious plans to tap this for sustainable energy in the form of biofuels, This visionary initiative will not only drive substantial waste reduction but also bolster energy security and champion sustainable development while helping the nation in its efforts to save up to US$30 billion in oil import bills up to 2030.
Nitin Gupta, the Chief Executive Officer of STEER Engineering, said, “At STEER, we’re on a mission to revolutionize the renewable energy and biofuel industries with our wealth of experience, expertise, and cutting-edge technology. Our unwavering dedication to innovation and sustainability is propelling us to create ground-breaking solutions for a greener and more sustainable future.”
“The incredible synergy between our shared values of efficiency, sustainability, and environmental stewardship, makes our partnership with GPS Renewables seamless and mutually beneficial. This collaboration perfectly aligns with our vision of cultivating a cleaner and more sustainable future for India”, added Mr Gupta.
Mainak Chakraborty, Chief Executive Officer, GPS Renewables, expressed his excitement about the collaboration with STEER Engineering: “Our new bio-processor is engineered to optimize performance and reduce lifecycle costs, making it a game-changer for our projects and the broader biofuel landscape We are excited about the possibilities ahead and look forward to transforming the BioCNG landscape together with Steer Engineering!”
