Having been established in the Golden Triangle (Beaumont, Port Arthur, Orange) since 2010, OCI Global continues its commitment to local sustainable development. The biomethane project, carried out in collaboration with Waga Energy and the municipality of Beaumont, aligns with this commitment, aiming to support OCI Global\u2019s green methanol production.<\/p>\n<p>The project will involve installing a system to capture gases emitted from the decomposition of organic waste. These gases will then be converted into biomethane by a WAGABOX\u00ae unit and injected into the local gas network. This initiative is expected to create around twenty jobs during the construction phase, adding to the 300 jobs already generated by OCI Global in the region, and will provide additional revenue to the city once the unit is operational. The WAGABOX\u00ae unit will be constructed and operated by Waga Energy, while OCI Global will own the biomethane production. This innovative business model in the United States could potentially be replicated at other landfill sites.<\/p>\n<p>The unit is scheduled to be operational by 2025, and it will prevent the emission of 27,440 tonnes of CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0equivalent per year, which is equal to the emissions from 2.8 million gallons of gasoline per year , according to the standards of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Another significant environmental benefit is the reduction of methane emissions, a particularly potent greenhouse gas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_row_2 et_pb_row et_flex_row et_animated post-text-row\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_2 et_pb_column et-last-child et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_24_24 et_flex_column_24_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_cta_1 et_pb_promo et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_flex_module post-text\"><div class=\"et_pb_promo_description\"><div class=\"et_pb_promo_content\"><p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited about this partnership with Waga Energy and the City of Beaumont, which will not only secure sustainably sourced RNG for OCI HyFuels, but also assist the City in abating significant GHG emissions.
