Developing a new gas-to-liquid (GTL) process capable of transforming coal, natural gas or biomass into a valuable fuels and chemical intermediates is what R3 Sciences is all about. By incorporating a family of innovative gas processes with a unique gas / liquid reactor design and catalyst composition, R3 Sciences has proven its capacity to achieve exceptionally high percentage of gas conversion in a single reactor pass. Prototype work is ongoing in order to develop process refinements.
Today, R3 Sciences is introducing new, mini-plant systems capable of producing chemical and energy co-products from available carbon-based natural resources. The technology R3 Sciences uses to accomplish this task is a combination of field-proven gas processing methods coupled with the new R3 Sciences catalytic reactor. A team of innovation-minded scientists from around the world are diligently working to complete construction on the 'first-of-a-kind' mini-plant process capable of producing valuable liquid energy products.
The current design will provide an easily transportable modular system capable of being easily assembled at the source of feedstock. Larger designs are being modeled for locations with larger volumes of isolated sources of natural gas.
The team at R3 Sciences believe by developing the mini-plant systems we are better able to take advantage of a distributed process/production model. This model places production systems near the points of use, avoiding the cost of transportation.
