The Renewable Fuels Association is excited to announce that MISTRAS Group has joined as a new associate member. This collaboration highlights RFA’s dedication to enhancing the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of the renewable fuels industry.
"RFA is excited to welcome MISTRAS Group to our membership, and we look forward to working together to move the renewable fuels industry forward," said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper. "Ethanol producers operate in a fast-paced, highly complex regulatory environment. The landscape for renewable fuels is quickly evolving, and companies like MISTRAS bring valuable expertise and solutions to the table to enhance safety, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency."
MISTRAS Group brings extensive experience in the renewable fuels sector, offering a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to support ethanol plants and other biorefineries in maintaining asset integrity. Their proprietary technologies enable advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) inspection services and inline inspections (ILI), along with robust data analytics, mechanical integrity (MI) support, and engineering consulting services. These solutions deliver critical integrity intelligence and insights to RFA producer members, enabling sustainable fuel plant and pipeline operators to make better-informed decisions, enhancing safety, regulatory and insurance compliance, and operational performance.
"We understand the unique challenges faced by biorefineries," said Gennaro "Jerry" D’Alterio, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. "Joining the RFA allows us to bring our advanced NDT and data analytical solutions to the forefront, helping members improve their biofuel processing capabilities and bioproduct output. We’re committed to forming strong partnerships within the RFA community, ensuring that their assets not only meet but exceed industry standards."
RFA producer members can leverage MISTRAS Group’s innovative asset protection technologies and expertise to enhance their operational excellence and sustainability. This partnership highlights the importance of data- driven decision-making for facilities using biomass feedstocks to produce biodiesel, sustainable aviation fuels (SAF, including those taking part in the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand Challenge), and other renewable fuels products, helping to ensure that RFA members remain at the cutting edge of efficiency and safety.
