In Switzerland, SEDC Energy (SEDCE) said it is collaborating with Sulzer Chemtech to deploy its proprietary BioFlux technology at Sarawak’s upcoming SAF pilot plant. The facility will convert locally sourced HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) feedstocks – including algae oil, palm oil mill effluent (POME), animal fats and used cooking oil (UCO) – into SAF. Sulzer will support SEDCE throughout the project, including process design engineering, detailed design, and modular plant supply. Once construction is complete, it will also deliver commissioning, and startup services. “Our partnership with Sulzer Chemtech represents a major step toward realising the vision of a sustainable energy future in Sarawak,” said Robert Hardin, Chief Executive Officer for SEDCE. “With advanced technologies like BioFlux, we are tapping into the potential of our local resources to produce world-class sustainable aviation fuel.”
