KBR’s PureSAF technology selected for SAF plant in Kazakhstan
In Texas, KBR announce it has been awarded a contract by KazMunayGas-Aero, a subsidiary of NC KazMunayGas JSC, and KazFoodProducts (KFP) for Kazakhstan’s first SAF production plant.
Under the terms of the contract, KBR will license the proprietary PureSAF technology, invented and developed by Swedish Biofuels AB, and provide proprietary engineering design. The plant will leverage the alcohol-to-jet (AtJ) process for producing aviation fuel from alcohol-based feedstocks.
The project will enable the integration of domestically produced agricultural feedstocks into high-value, low-carbon fuel production value chains, KBR said.
Jay Ibrahim, President, KBR Sustainable Technology Solutions, said: “KBR’s PureSAF is a feed‑flexible, bankable technology that is designed to deliver high SAF yields and supports the project across the full lifecycle. We look forward to closely collaborating and supporting the successful execution of this landmark SAF project.”
