Kvasir Technologies<\/strong>, a Copenhagen-based biofuel startup, has raised \u20ac10 million in a Series A investment round to accelerate the scale-up and commercialisation of its climate-neutral marine fuel.<\/span><\/p>\n

European Energy participated in this round as a new investor, alongside existing investors EIFO, M\u00e6rsk Growth and Footprint Fund. At the same time, the Danish startup has entered into a strategic partnership with European Energy by establishing the company KVEEN Biofuels, which is working towards the construction of a commercial-scale plant to produce biofuels using Kvasir Technologies\u2019 patented technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis investment round enables us to take the next crucial steps in developing and scaling our technology. At the same time, it underlines that there is still strong support for solutions that can deliver real climate impact in the maritime sector,\u201d said Joachim Bachmann Nielsen<\/strong>, CEO of Kvasir Technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kvasir Technologies, a spin-out from DTU \u2013 Technical University of Denmark, was founded in 2018 by COO Anders Bak Kristoffersen and CEO Joachim Bachmann Nielsen. Nielsen, who has a PhD in Chemical Engineering, developed the company\u2019s core technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kvasir Technologies is a Danish CleanTech company specialising in climate-neutral biofuel production. It has developed a new technology to convert a wide range of non-edible lignin-based residues from agriculture and forestry into refined biofuels for shipping.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company claims that the climate-neutral biofuel can serve as an immediate replacement for fossil marine fuel without the need to modify ship engines or change existing infrastructure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Its single-step biofuel conversion process is called solvothermal liquefaction. The startup states that it is the only process that can fully convert lignocellulosic biomass, which is the earth\u2019s most abundantly available biomass waste material, to produce next-generation marine biofuel.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur process is among the most efficient in liquefying solid biomass….<\/span><\/p>\n
