TEHRAN (NIPNA) – Fanavaran Petrochemical Company has initiated the pre-commissioning phase of its hydrogen-fired boiler, a pioneering project in Iran’s petrochemical industry aimed at energy optimization and emissions reduction.

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.
