The boiler will utilize hydrogen gas and surplus water from the
methanol unit to produce 160,000 tons of high-pressure steam annually, marking
a significant step toward improving energy efficiency and reducing
environmental pollutants.
According to NIPNA, the project is set to officially launch in the
presence of national officials. A subsidiary of the TAPICO and Social Security
Investment Company (Shasta) holdings, Fanavaran Petrochemical aims to leverage
the innovative boiler to reduce its reliance on external energy sources while
enhancing its production capacity and environmental sustainability.
The hydrogen-fired boiler is expected to achieve full profitability
within less than a year, with a projected return on investment of 89 percent.
By utilizing surplus hydrogen and water resources, the project underscores a
commitment to cutting operational costs and greenhouse gas emissions in line
with long-term sustainability goals.
In addition to boosting production efficiency, the boiler represents a
cutting-edge alternative to conventional energy sources in the petrochemical
sector. It is designed to significantly reduce emissions while enhancing energy
self-sufficiency, reflecting Fanavaran's dedication to environmental
stewardship and economic viability.
The project aligns with national objectives to lower greenhouse gas
emissions and energy production costs, setting a new benchmark for
sustainability in Iran’s petrochemical industry.
