About us

Trillium Renewable Chemicals is developing a chemical process technology for the manufacture of acrylonitrile and acetonitrile from renewable feedstocks (e.g. glycerol). Acrylonitrile is a valuable intermediate used in the production of a wide range of molecules, e.g.: acrylic fibers, carbon fibers, specialty amines, nylon, adiponitrile, styrene acrylonitrile resin, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, nitrile rubbers, and acrylamide. By making a green, drop-in replacement precursor, Trillium helps customers reach sustainability goals. These drop-in replacement molecules have a wide range of applications with strong sustainability drivers, e.g.: apparel, automotive parts, toys, sporting goods, household furnishings, and water treatment.

    Trillium Renewable Chemicals has chosen INEOS Nitriles' Green Lake facility in Texas to set up the world's first demonstration plant for sustainable acrylonitrile production. This innovative technology allows to convert plant-based glycerol into acrylonitrile. Starting operations in early 2025, the project is scheduled to run through early 2026. "INEOS Nitriles is very pleased to be working with Trillium to advance technology for the production of sustainable bio-based acrylonitrile. Our support of this project, which is part of our wider sustainability strategy, emphasises our commitment as the world’s largest producer of acrylonitrile, to reducing the carbon footprint of the industry," emphasizes Hans Casier, CEO of INEOS Nitriles.

    How can collaboration drive innovation in sustainable materials? At Syensqo, our partnership with Trillium Renewable Chemicals is a prime example. Together, we've reached a significant milestone in developing #sustainable raw materials for carbon fiber applications! Trillium has successfully designed and installed a small-scale Bio-ACN™ facility and delivered the initial pilot scale samples of Bio-ACN™. Syensqo have set the stage for producing research quantities of bio-based carbon fiber by creating samples of lab-scale Poly Bio-ACN™ precursor. As we look forward to making further progress in our joint ambitions to revolutionize the composites industry and demonstrate the viability of high bio-content carbon fiber composites, we invite you to stay connected and watch us explore new frontiers. https://bit.ly/4b6VcRU #Syensqo #AdvancingHumanity #BioBasedMaterials #CarbonFiber
