[#NaturalGas] HySWEET™ is our hybrid process for the simultaneous removal of #mercaptans and acid gases from natural gas. ✅ The removal of these component is necessary for the liquefaction of sweet gas, and is also required to meet pipeline transportation specifications.   💡 Developed by TotalEnergies and commercialized by Axens, HySWEET™ maximizes the removal of mercaptans along with the absorption of the acidic species. At the same time, it has lower #hydrocarbon co-absorption, which can be an issue with other hybrid solvents that can be potentially harmful for the downstream #SulfurRecovery unit treating the recovered acid gas stream. An additional benefit of this hybrid formulation is the reduced regeneration duty, which decreases both operating expenses (OPEX) and carbon footprint.   📖 More about HySWEET™: https://lnkd.in/eAQZE9nG

[#CrudetoChemicals] Through efficient combinations of #lowcarbon solutions with state-of-the-art crude-to-chemical technologies, we are helping #CTC complexes to accelerate in improving their CO2 footprint. For this purpose, we deploy technically-proven and economically viable solutions in two steps: 1️⃣ Applying lower-carbon solutions, such as supplying renewable power to rotating machines, replacing selected fired fuel gas heaters with electrical heaters, and producing low-carbon hydrogen through electrolysis using renewable electricity. 2️⃣ Deploying proven carbon capture solutions to capture CO2 before release into the atmosphere. These include Advamine™, a pre-combustion CO2 capture technology, and the DMX™ process for post-combustion CO2 capture. 💡 Learn more from our experts Sophie Babusiaux and Thierry Leflour in this article first published in Digital Refining / PTQ Magazine: https://lnkd.in/eANckfWK

[#Replay] Wondering how #LowCarbon #Hydrogen can support #SAF production? Check out this webinar hosted by Hydrocarbon Processing and moderated by VP Editor-in-Chief Lee Nichols 🎥 Our Renewables product line experts Thomas Plennevaux and Yvon Bernard, walk us through the main technologies producing Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Are featured here among main trends and solutions in our portfolio: Alcohol-to-jet, Fischer-Tropsch, HEFA - some of the main solutions and the most promising pathways to support the decarbonization of the #aviation sector. All of these technologies use hydrogen in different quantities with a strong impact in the project related to profitability and carbon footprint 💡 Through case studies, Thomas and Yvon also highlight comparisons revolving around the hydrogen production cost versus the cost of SAF production. They address projects such as E-fuels, E-biofuels, where Axens is licensing these technologies, and where low carbon hydrogen plays a key role ✅ ➡️ To watch the #webinar: https://lnkd.in/eRZsDgvq 📊 For more on our SAF portfolio: https://lnkd.in/e8pYPtEq

[#LifeatAxens 🎥5️⃣] Watch today both Manon GENEST and Maxime THOMAS, who unveil here a few champion secrets, tips and #inclusion values that led to find ourselves #AxensTeams connecting with these 2 internationally renowned para-athletes for the Paris 2024 Games 🎖 Why is Manon today a champion? 🏃♀️ ➡ “I didn’t choose to be a champion. They reached out to me when I was at my lowest. I’ve met some wonderful people who took me to the highest level”. ➡ And in this context, “the most beautiful encounter was with my daughter when she was born”. And what about Maxime? 🏓 ➡ Because both are outstanding fighters. Manon for instance managed to reach her international sports career goals, while in the same timeframe, having and mothering a young baby. But she also is, everywhere she goes for training sessions across the globe, always closely accompanied by her first top supporter (closely right before us #AxensTeams), her young daughter 🚼🎖   As time is closely approaching ahead of the Paralympic contests, let’s catch-up in the next episode on our champions’ preparation 🎬

[#LifeatAxens 🎥4️⃣] Wondering why we chose to partner with Manon GENEST and Maxime THOMAS for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games? 🎖 #commondestinies 🏓 First answers here zooming today on Maxime’s ongoing training preparation. While our international tennis table champion’s 5 years of preparation with his coaching team, includes “all round care”, upstream performance: “neuroscience, visual work and care like physiotherapy and osteopathy” 💪 No Prep Team = No Performance: the “small detail that will make all the difference D-Day”, is the outcome of “a very close knit and comprehensive coaching team” daily supporting him. 🔍 And for our #AxensTeams, the key “small detail” that led us to our common Axens/Maxime&Manon destinies is all about highly inspiring #values such as Excellence, Performance and Openness to others. ➡ These values were closely shared with our teams over the past few years through concrete actions carried out with them throughout our different France-based offices. Together, we implemented awareness-raising initiatives focused for instance on disability and promoting #diversity and #inclusion among our teams. Learn more in the following episode 🎬
