Abstract: The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented monitoring method for a renewables plant, the plant being configured for production of a chemical or fuel product at least partly from a renewable feedstock or source, the plant comprising a plurality of means for registering parameters of the production process, preferably a plurality of sensors in the plant, e.g., along a reactor. The method further comprises calculating a sustainability score from the received sensor data. The disclosure further relates to a computer-implemented monitoring method and system, a data-processing system and a renewables plant comprising the above.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented monitoring method for a blue plant, the plant being configured for production of a blue chemical or fuel product and comprising a plurality of means for registering parameters of the production process, preferably a plurality of sensors in the plant, e.g., along a reactor, wherein carbon capture is utilized to improve the carbon footprint of the product. The method further comprises calculating a sustainability score from the received sensor data. The disclosure further relates to a computer-implemented monitoring method and system, a data-processing system and a blue plant comprising the above.

Abstract: Process and plant for producing hydrocarbon products from a feedstock originating from a renewable source, where a hydrogen-rich stream and on off-gas stream comprising hydrocarbons is formed. A portion of the hydrogen-rich stream is used as a recycle gas stream in a hydroprocessing stage for the production of said hydrocarbon products, and another portion may be used for hydrogen production, while the off-gas stream is treated to remove its H2S content and used as a recycle gas stream in the hydrogen producing unit, from which the hydrogen produced i.e. make-up hydrogen, is used in the hydroprocessing stage. The invention enables minimizing natural gas consumption in the hydrogen producing unit as well as steam reformer size.
