Honeywell has announced that Syzygy Plasmonics, a global leader in electrified biogas-to-SAF technology, will use Honeywell UOP Fischer-Tropsch (FT) UnicrackingTM technology to make sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from dairy waste and renewable energy at the world’s first electrified biogas-to-SAF facility.
Syzygy’s modular commercial plant, NovaSAF-1, located in Duranzo, Uruguay, is expected to produce more than 350,000 gallons of SAF per year. The NovaSAFTM platform can be replicated at over 50,000 biogas sites globally, helping scale affordable SAF production of abundant feedstock.
With traditional feedstocks in short supply, alternative production methods are important to produce renewable fuels. By 2030, the International Energy Agency predicts waste- and non-food crop-based biofuels will supply over 40% of biofuel demand.
