Biofuels – Challenge Improvement settlement with Euthenia and BTG Bioliquids.
Quadrise Plc (AIM: QED), the provider of revolutionary vitality options for a cleaner planet, announce the signature of a Challenge Improvement Settlement (“PDA”) with renewable biofuels specialists, BTG Bioliquids BV (“BTL”) and Euthenia Vitality Group Restricted (“Euthenia”).
As introduced on 8 June 2023, Quadrise and BTL entered right into a Joint Improvement Settlement (“JDA”) to analyze using BTL’s quick pyrolysis bio-oil (“FPBO”) as a possible cost-effective renewable feedstock for Quadrise’s bioMSAR™ answer. The JDA types a part of our technique to ship a commercially viable net-zero biofuel by 2030 while additionally supporting decarbonisation of the marine, energy, and heavy business sectors.
Work carried out underneath the JDA has resulted in constructive outcomes to this point, with secure formulations of bioMSAR™ incorporating FPBO (“Pyrolytic bioMSAR™”) being produced on the Quadrise Analysis Facility.

Constructing on this success, Quadrise and BTL have signed the PDA with Euthenia, an industrial group that’s targeted on creating, financing, and working renewable vitality initiatives and transition options for a low carbon economic system. Euthenia have lively initiatives and operations in Europe, North America and the Caribbean.
Underneath the PDA, a programme of lab and pilot testing, adopted by diesel engine testing, is deliberate resulting in a third-party business marine vessel trial. Euthenia will course of ligno-cellulosic biomass feedstock at their services in Spain utilizing BTL’s FPBO and fractionation applied sciences, with the extracted sugars blended into Pyrolytic bioMSAR™ to supply sustainable marine gasoline.
The work envisaged underneath the PDA is anticipated to speed up the event of Pyrolytic bioMSAR™ and bioMSAR™ Zero to serve world delivery fleets within the Mediterranean, widen the worldwide alternatives for BTL FPBO expertise and leverage Euthenia’s profitable bioenergy and decarbonisation enterprise.
A binding time period sheet is anticipated to be finalised and signed inside 4 months of signing the PDA to cowl the bigger diesel engine checks, the marine vessel trial and the longer term business relationships between the events.
James Miles, Chief Govt Officer of Quadrise, stated:
Quadrise is happy with the progress made with BTG Bioliquids to this point, and we’re delighted to be now working alongside Euthenia underneath this new tripartite settlement.
“Superior biofuels derived from woody biomass are anticipated to be very worth aggressive net-zero feedstocks. Importantly, the extracted sugars are water-soluble and subsequently significantly fitted to use with our oil-in-water emulsion expertise for delivery and industrial functions.”
“This newest collaboration is a part of our wider plan to commercialise bioMSAR™ sustainable marine gasoline in main bunker hubs, in addition to advancing our programme to provide bioMSAR™ Zero by 2030 to cut back sector emissions of greenhouse gases and different pollution utilizing current infrastructure.
Gerhard Muggen, Managing Director of BTG Bioliquids, added:
BTG Bioliquids is happy to have signed this newest settlement with Quadrise and Euthenia to speed up our technique of collaborating with companions to develop engaging functions for quick pyrolysis bio-oil expertise.
“The profitable inclusion of quick pyrolysis bio-oils and their derivatives into bioMSAR™ can be a serious step in decarbonising the delivery business.”
Jean Paul Chalot, Chairman of Euthenia Vitality Group, concluded:
Euthenia is happy to provoke this main challenge in collaboration with BTG Bioliquids and Quadrise as expertise companions, utilizing our industrial website in Spain, leveraged by a singular background within the biomass business and a location close by the most important Mediterranean bunker hubs of Algeciras and Gibraltar.
“Superior renewable transportation fuels derived from biomass current a really disruptive various for the aviation and delivery industries. With the profitable consequence of this Challenge, we’ll affirm our ambition with our companions to be a serious participant within the sustainable marine gasoline business.”
