XCF Global leverages Alfa Laval tech for pretreatment capabilities

XCF Global (SAFX) announces it leverages Alfa Laval (ALFVY) pretreatment technology at its New Rise Reno facility. Their pretreatment technology is a key component of XCF’s strategy to enhance feedstock flexibility, improve operational efficiency, and mitigate supply chain risks. The New Rise Reno facility is designed to be feedstock-agnostic, allowing it to process a wide variety of waste- and residue-based feedstocks. Such feedstocks include waste oils, agricultural residues, animal fats, and co-products from industrial agriculture. The Alfa Laval pretreatment process is important for preparing these feedstocks for SAF and renewable fuels production. The technology ensures that the feedstock is purified and treated to meet the stringent standards necessary for producing high-quality renewable fuels.The pretreatment process allows XCF to adapt to fluctuations in feedstock availability and pricing. Additionally, pretreated feedstocks extend catalyst life, reducing downtime associated with catalyst changeouts and improving plant uptime. This flexibility is key to XCF’s ability to scale operations and maintain sustainable, cost-effective production.
