BP Kwinana Renewable Fuels Project

Project
Proponent: 
BP Refinery (Kwinana) Pty Ltd
Proposal description: 

The Proposal is for the construction and operation of a Renewable fuels processing facility that produces renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel from vegetable oils, animal fats and other biowaste products. 

The biorefinery will reuse the existing processing infrastructure formerly used for hydrocarbon refining (such as hydrofiner units, storage tanks, pipelines and utilities such as the flare and wastewater treatment plant) combined with some additional new infrastructure such as a Hydrogen Generation Unit, Pre-Treatment Unit, Product Fractionation Unit and Anaerobic Bio Digestion Unit.  

The Proposal is located at the former oil refinery site in the Kwinana Industrial Area and will use existing disturbed footprint to implement this project
