Jakson Green said it has bagged an order from state-owned NTPC for setting up a plant to produce 4G ethanol from flue gas.

The proposed plant at Lara in Chhattisgarh will produce 10 tonnes per day (TPD) of 4G ethanol from flue gases emitted from power plants, a company statement said.

Using the latest carbon capture technology by Veolia Carbon Clean, the plant will capture 25 TPD CO2 from flue gases, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions, it said.

Also, 3 tonnes per day of green hydrogen will be generated through 7.5 MW electrolyser, the statement said.

Captured carbon dioxide (CO2) and generated hydrogen (H2) are combined via advanced microbial fermentation technology from LanzaTech Inc., converting these inputs into 4G ethanol, it explained.
