From fossil- to bio-based refineriesCase Study Biorefinery Leuna
Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH 2 August 2009/Uwe Welteroth
IEA-Bioenergy Task 42 Biorefinery – German WorkshopWorms, September 15th, 2009
Agenda
From fossil- to bio-based refineries
— Key drivers
— Status and development trends
— From TODAY'S bio-based production to FUTURE integrated Biorefineries
Vision "Biorefinery Leuna"
— "Bioethylene" as an example for the integration into the value chain
— Why Bioethylene?
— Future integrative scenario
Conclusion & Outlook
Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH 3 August 2009/Uwe Welteroth
From fossil- to bio-based refineries – Key drivers
Feedstock change – trend to renewable raw materials
— securing supply (shortage of fossil feedstocks)
— rising costs of fossil feedstocks
— autonomy of supply
Sustainability
— neutral/positive C02-balance
— energy, water, resources, environmental burdon
Political will
— to establish a bio-based economy in Europe
— to keep Europe in a leading position in White Biotech
— to support European agriculture
Economics
— new/innovative products
— cheaper production processes
Triple P principle

Advantage for bio-based processes upon integration:
— use of existing site facilities (infrastructure, utilities, services)
— integrated energy concept
— support in approval processes

Linde-KCA-Dresden GmbH 14 August 2009/Uwe Welteroth
Conclusion & outlook
Future trend - from fossil based sites to integrated next generation Biorefineries
Fossil based refinery Challenge bio-based
highly integrated mature technologies technology development
well known fossil raw materials complex new raw materials
established products and value chain partially new products for value chain
Option:
replacement of fossil-based refineries by new large-scale greenfield biorefineries?
feasible short to midterm solution:
Integrative bio/chemical "Verbund" concept tapping the full synergy potential of existing sites
an ideal place: the Leuna Biorefinery
Thank you for your interest.
