Quadrise signs JDA with Alder Energy

In the UK, Quadrise has signed a Joint Development Agreement with renewable fuel technology experts Alder Energy LLC. Alder’s proprietary pyrolysis oil upgrading technology is designed to produce stable Alder Renewable Crude and associated products such as Alder Pyrolysis Sugars.

Under the JDA, the Quadrise and Alder teams intend to collaborate in respect of the use of Alder’s APS product as a potential cost-effective renewable feedstock for bioMSAR™ and bioMSAR Zero™, with success of initial lab testing of Alder’s APS product at the Quadrise Research Facility expected to lead to small-scale diesel engine tests at Aquafuel later this year to confirm initial viability. Subject to the success of the Initial Testing and subject to the contractual agreement of both parties and engine availability, third-party testing in marine diesel engines would then be completed within 12 months of completion of the Initial Testing.
