Enerkem’s MSW-to-methanol plant brings together Port of Rotterdam with Akso Nobel and Air Liquide

In the Netherlands, Enerkem is teaming with not just the Port of Rotterdam but also Akso Nobel and Air Liquide on a MSW-to-methanol plant at the port, where more than 2 million metric tons of MSW are imported annually. Akso Nobel is seen as a key offtaker of the methanol produced from the project as it looks to shift its raw materials away from fossil fuels while Air Liquide will supply the gases required for the manufacturing process. Air Liquide is expected to continue partnership with Enerkem as it expands into other projects around the world.
