Description
InEnTec will build a new renewable dimethyl ether (rDME) production facility at CRC’s Net Zero Industrial Park in Kern County California.
In April 2023, Carbon TerraVault entered into a Carbon Dioxide Management Agreement (CDMA) with InEnTec to sequester initially at the minimum 100,000 MTPA of CO2 from InEnTec’s facility in the CTV I carbon storage vault.
The rDME facility is expected to produce 80 to 100 tons per day of rDME from biomass and other waste materials.
Project FID is targeted in late 2024. CTV and InEnTec are discussing CRC’s potential financial participation in the rDME facility, including potentially a significant equity stake
