In North Carolina, Honeywell announced that Syzygy Plasmonics will use Honeywell UOP Fischer-Tropsch (FT) Unicracking technology to make sustainable aviation fuel from dairy waste and renewable energy at what it claims to be 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 NovaSAF platform can be replicated at over 50,000 biogas sites globally, helping scale affordable SAF production of abundant feedstock.
“Our NovaSAF platform helps meet the growing demand for sustainable aviation fuels by achieving both high volumes and low price points, even as low as Jet-A parity under the right conditions,” said Trevor Best, CEO and co-founder of Syzygy Plasmonics. “With Honeywell’s hydrocracking technology, we can accelerate the development of our modular NovaSAF-1 plant, which will serve as a repeatable, scalable model for the future. This plant will show the world how profitable it can be to produce SAF from biogas waste streams combined with renewable energy.”
