Our Company

INFRA Technology Group is an innovation-based company, developing and commercializing advanced energy and materials technologies that aim to profoundly alter energy, materials and resource systems worldwide.

Energy

Energy

Use of mineral oil for production of liquid fuels becomes ever more difficult and costly. Industry is searching for more abundant resources that would fit into existing energy infrastructure. New energy transformation technologies include fuel cells and gas-to-liquid (GTL). GTL challenge – to unlock the economic efficiency of the whole GTL process.

Infra Technology group has developed and patented a proprietary Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) technology (INFRA.xtl), based on the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis process, for the production of light synthetic oil and clean liquid synthetic transportation fuels from natural and associated gas, as well as from biomass and other fossil fuels (XTL).

INFRA.xtl represents a breakthrough in the synthesis of liquid hydrocarbon fuels.

Capital investment

$24-70k
  • per barrel
  • of capacity per day

including engineering and documentation costs, cost of licenses and special services, cost of the equipment, assembly and construction costs

Cost of conversion

$6-10
  • per barrel

including cost of catalyst, direct labour, utilities and G&A

The market opportunity for applications of the technologies developed by INFRA are very substantial and growing:

In addition to vast economic benefits it offers: (for a country with abundant natural/shale gas resources, such as the U.S.)

Materials

We are on the forefront of research aimed at creating new carbon-based nano-structured materials. We develop high-strength/high-modulus composites and fibrous materials on the basis of centimetre-long carbon nanotubes. The world demand for such "classic" carbon fibre-based materials is growing 25% annually with the market size of $50 billion. Our solution will provide cheaper alternatives with improved properties.

Our proprietary reactor design allows growing 15-30 cm-long aligned strands of high-quality carbon nanotubes from gas feedstock in macroscopic amounts.

INFRA Technologies R&D team operates state-of-the-art research facilities - both owned by the company and its research partners, such as Technological Institute for Superhard and Novel Carbon Materials. The company has its own highly functional design and production group.
