CPFD Software (CPFD) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a software licensing agreement with Alléo Energy for use of CPFD’s Barracuda Virtual Reactor fluid-particle simulation software.
Alléo Energy is thrilled to harness the advanced analytics that CPFD delivers for deep computational analysis of Alléo proprietary commercial Max H₂ Plus integrated multi-step biomass conversion system.
“We are very satisfied with the outstanding clarity that CPFD Barracuda brings, which has enabled us to analyze the reactions within the Alléo Biomass Reforming reactor in a very thorough manner. The high-resolution fluid dynamics overlayed with the reaction chemistry is essential to achieve our commercial goals. CPFD is the only company that offers this detailed insight into reaction dynamics.” – Ray Fletcher, CTO, Alléo Energy
“Alléo Energy is tackling a challenging and important problem in biomass conversion, and we’re proud to support their work with Barracuda Virtual Reactor,” said Peter Blaser. “Our simulation platform is designed specifically for complex reacting, particle-fluid systems, giving teams like Alléo the confidence to make informed design and scale-up decisions, supporting their commercialization and deployment goals.”
Alléo Energy
Alléo Energy has developed a multi-step biomass conversion system for the production of renewable fuels and other products. Founded in 2020, Alléo has spent over five years developing its cellulose-to-green hydrogen technology entitled Max-H2 Plus which has been proven on a commercial scale and is ready for deployment. The process is carbon negative with a production cost competitive with gray hydrogen, making it profitable without subsidies. Alléo Energy is a privately held company seeking strategic partners for the deployment of its green hydrogen technology.
About CPFD Software
CPFD Software is advancing multiphase simulation and technology. Our flagship product, Barracuda Virtual Reactor, is a physics-based engineering software package capable of predicting fluid, particulate-solid, thermal and chemically reacting behavior in fluidized bed reactors and other fluid-particle systems reducing the risk associated with design, scale-up, commercialization, and trouble-shooting of industrial processes. The Virtual Reactor technology is accessible through software licensing, consulting, or engineering services.
