The Government of the Dominican Republic and Ridge Partners Linea Noroeste SA (RPLN) have signed a definitive contract to build the country’s first waste-to-diesel plant, using E3i BioRefinery® technology.
The project is valued at USD 290 million, with all capital provided by RPLN, and is expected to create 220 jobs.
Waste will be converted through pyrolysis at approximately 1,100 °C. The resulting “Dominican Diesel” is fully contracted, with 100% of the fuel sold for use in England. Compost, wood vinegar and biochar are produced as co-products.
