Shell India Markets, the Indian arm of Royal Dutch Shell, has plans to build a biofuel demonstration plant using IH2 technology in Bangalore, India.
IH2 technology is a continuous catalytic thermo-chemical process which converts a broad range of forestry or agricultural residues and municipal wastes directly into renewable transportation fuels and blend stocks. As the IH2 technology converts a wide range of residual biomass, the facility in Bangalore will be designed to allow variation in feedstock.
According to Shell India, highly relevant commercial feedstock, such as residual woody biomass and agricultural and municipal residues, will be within the intended feed scope.
