In Italy, MAIRE announces that NEXTCHEM’s subsidiary KT Tech has been awarded a licensing contract for the implementation of NEXTCHEM’s proprietary NX AdWinMethanol Zero technology for Pacifico Mexinol, an ultra-low carbon methanol facility near Los Mochis, Sinaloa, on the Pacific coast of Mexico, with an output in excess of 2.1 million tons per year.
Transition Industries LLC, a company based in Houston, Texas, is jointly developing Pacifico Mexinol with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group.
When it initiates operation in 2028, Pacifico Mexinol is expected to be the largest single ultra-low carbon methanol facility in the world – producing approximately 350,000 metric tons of green methanol and 1.8 million metric tons of blue methanol annually from natural gas with carbon capture.
MAIRE noted that the NX AdWinMethanol Zero technology developed by GasConTec, NEXTCHEM’s subsidiary dedicated to low-carbon hydrogen and methanol solutions, integrates its proprietary Autothermal Reforming (ATR) process and methanol synthesis loop and proprietary CO2 capture technologies.
