OUR PROCESSES & ENGINEERING
MCT, Suspended Bed and Fixed-Bed Technologies
HXELAB develops and deploys industrial hydrogenation and hydroprocessing schemes for SAF and renewable diesel production.
Our core process configurations combine:
  • Suspended-bed hydrogenation (HSBH / MCT),
  • Fixed-bed hydrotreating, hydrocracking and isomerization units,
  • Hybrid schemes, adapted to feedstock quality and product targets.

Why MCT / HSBH
Suspended-bed hydrogenation allows:
  • high tolerance to oxygen, acidity, metals and contaminants,
  • processing of degraded and advanced feedstocks,
  • stable pressure drop and long operating cycles,
  • reduced pretreatment requirements compared to fixed-bed-only HEFA schemes.

Engineering Scope
HXELAB provides:
  • process configuration and technology selection,
  • integration of suspended-bed and fixed-bed units,
  • hydrogen management and energy integration,
  • feedstock pretreatment strategy definition,
  • debottlenecking and refinery upgrade studies.
Engineering activities are supported by internal process teams and technology partners such as Haixin, and executed with experienced EPC contractors.
