项目摘要

Whitefox is an innovative British company specialising in developing engineering solutions for multiple industries including bioethanol, solvent recovery and biochemicals.Whitefox's proprietary technology has proven advantages in terms of process efficiency, energy reduction and higher yield, resulting in both savings and increased revenue generation.Biofuels is a key target market for Whitefox; globally the market is valued at around £43bn and is forecast to double by 2030. The US is a key export market for Whitefox, whereby its existing technology is currently operating at 9 US plants.Whitefox is looking to dramatically improve the efficiency of biofuel production. This will benefit the UK's £1 billion biofuels industry, forecast to grow as the UK moves from 5-10% ethanol blends in petrol, driven by the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation and the UK's 2050 Net-Zero targets.Whitefox has developed a new disruptive solution to significantly improve the efficiency of the global production of sustainable fuels for road and air transport. Its membrane-based solution reduces energy, water and CO2 emissions in production by more than 50%. This project will take this innovation through to industrial demonstration to support large scale commercialisation.As with the water industry, which introduced RO membranes instead of industrial distillation, Whitefox is looking to introduce hollow fibre membranes to modernise the biofuels industry.

Whitefox是一家创新的英国公司，专门为多个行业开发工程解决方案，包括生物乙醇，溶剂回收和生物化学品。Whitefox的专有技术在工艺效率，节能和更高的产量方面已经证明了优势，从而节省了成本并增加了收入。生物燃料是Whitefox的主要目标市场;全球市场价值约为430亿英镑，预计到2030年将翻一番。美国是Whitefox的一个重要出口市场，其现有技术目前在美国的9家工厂运行。Whitefox正在寻求大幅提高生物燃料生产效率。这将使英国价值10亿英镑的生物燃料行业受益，预计随着英国在可再生运输燃料义务和英国2050年净零目标的推动下从汽油中的5-10%乙醇混合物转变，该行业将继续增长。Whitefox开发了一种新的颠覆性解决方案，以显着提高全球公路和航空运输可持续燃料的生产效率。其基于膜的解决方案可将生产过程中的能源、水和二氧化碳排放量减少50%以上。该项目将把这一创新技术应用于工业示范，以支持大规模商业化。与水处理行业一样，Whitefox也希望引入中空纤维膜来实现生物燃料行业的现代化。
