'Orange gas' released in chemical spill at south Taranaki factoryStuff | July 22, 2019 Taranaki Regional Council staff have launched an investigation after an orange gas was released when two chemicals were accidentally mixed at a Taranaki factory, prompting staff to take emergency measures and evacuate the immediate area. Specialised fire crews were called to a large spill at Taranaki Bio Extracts, on Kohiti Rd in Okaiawa, at 2.20pm on Monday, a fire and emergency spokesperson said.Taranaki Bio Extracts makes a range of natural ingredients including beef bone extract and dried bone chips for food manufacturing and service industries locally and internationally. Fire and Emergency NZ (Fenz) attended, along with three appliances from Hāwera, one from Okaiawa, one from New Plymouth and a hazardous materials and specialist unit from New Plymouth. The staff pushed the emergency stop and it looks as if that has isolated the issue, he said. Quick action by the staff in stopping it has prevented a bigger catastrophe. A Fenz spokesperson said crews were working at the scene and the location of the spill was at a smaller site on the workplace, which has been evacuated and isolated. They were unable to confirm what the chemicals were but said they had reacted together. Watt said CCTV from the scene had been examined and no gas could be seen. However, a crew with gas detectors was being sent in. Leading eFuels provider Infinium and Amogy Inc. (Amogy), a pioneer of carbon-free, energy-dense power solutions, have entered into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to explore opportunities to integrate their technologies and develop commercial applications across the eFuels and green ammonia value chain. Infinium and Amogy are also exploring collaborations with both Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group and SK Innovation for deployment of the integrated solution.To accelerate the decarbonization of heavy industry sectors, the companies will jointly study and identify the most suitable applications to deploy their eFuels and green ammonia solutions. A key focus of this collaboration is the potential integration of Amogy's ammonia-cracking technology to provide low-cost, accessible green hydrogen feedstock as an input to produce Infinium's eFuels.Infinium eFuels, also known as electrofuels or Power-to-X, are made from green hydrogen and waste carbon dioxide (CO2) in a proprietary process. Amogy's ammonia-cracking technology leverages its state-of-the-art catalyst materials to crack ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen at lower reaction temperatures with high durability, reducing heating and maintenance requirements.Upon identifying promising applications, Infinium and Amogy will initiate strategic pilot programs, showcasing tangible and scalable implementations of their clean technology solutions. The partnership also entails the evaluation of additional opportunities for collaboration within the eFuels and ammonia spaces, with a focus on the development of commercial use cases.Ingenuity and collaboration are critical to creating decarbonization solutions today. Our partnership with Amogy will go a long way toward helping advance our ability to rapidly scale the production of ultra-low carbon Infinium eFuels, including eSAF, eDiesel and eNaphtha, said Robert Schuetzle, CEO at Infinium.We are thrilled to forge this alliance with Infinium. By uniting our expertise and resources, we aim to unlock innovative opportunities that will pave the way for sustainable solutions, says Seonghoon Woo, CEO of Amogy. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to accelerating technologies that can contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions in the heavy industry sectors.Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) has invested in both Infinium and Amogy and is exploring potential collaboration for new solutions and applications in energy sector project development.Decarbonizing heavy industries requires numerous approaches that can concurrently and collaboratively help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, said Ricky Sakai, Senior Vice President of New Business Development at MHI of America. We are excited to see how Amogy's emission-free, energy-dense ammonia solution and Infinium's proprietary eFuels production process might be aligned to overcome challenges and accelerate the global availability of commercial decarbonization solutions.SK Trading International (SKTI) invests in solutions that contribute to addressing climate change and environmental pollution and is an investor in Infinium while its parent company SK Innovation has invested in Amogy.Our global goals to slow the warming of the planet require significant efforts so they can quickly scale, find synergies, and explore new pathways, said Hyunchol Park, Managing Director and Head of Global Trading at SKTI. Infinium and Amogy are leaders in their progress and proven solutions, and I believe their partnership will result in the identification of breakthrough opportunities to expand and grow access to cleaner fuels.About InfiniumInfinium is an electrofuels provider on a mission to decarbonize the world. Electrofuels are a new class of synthetic fuels made using renewable power and waste carbon dioxide, not petroleum or resources needed to produce food.
