Job description
At Technip Energies, we believe in a better tomorrow, and we believe we can make tomorrow better. With approximately 15,000 talented women and men, we are a global and leading engineering and technology company, with a clear vision to accelerate the energy transition. Designing and delivering added-value energy solutions is what we do.
From Engineers and Specialists to Project Managers and Support Staff, spread across 13 countries, our people thrive in a dynamic, proactive business balanced with a deep sense of environmental responsibility. Never standing still, we see limitless possibilities for our solutions; and our knowledge-sharing, collaboration and innovative thinking are just a few of the ways we fuel our energy for what we do.
Project Background
Our customer is developing a waste tyre recovery project in Sunderland, UK to produce low-carbon maritime and road transportation fuels and recovered carbon black (rCB). The project is being developed to live up to our sustainability mission, and we are proving that a circular economy is good for both the environment and our economy. The plant in full operation is capable of processing around 80,000 tonnes per year of end-of-life car and truck tyre material.
Every year it will avoid the pollution of landfilling or incinerating of these tyres and the operations of the plant will eliminate the emission of 1,800,000 tons of CO2 over its lifetime. At the same time, it will produce useful low-carbon fuels for maritime and road transportation, as well as recovered carbon black, to be recycled into the tyre manufacturing process. The project is based on a customer-proprietary configuration developed with its partners. An ambitious ongoing technology development program will ensure that the plant continues to benefit from the latest available technology improvements.
