CP Axtra and GGC sign MoU to transform UCO into SAF
In Thailand, Kaohoon International reported that CP Axtra Public Company, operator of wholesale “Makro” and retail “Lotus’s” businesses, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Global Green Chemicals Public Company—a subsidiary of PTT Global Chemical Public Company —to collect used cooking oil (UCO) from CP Axtra branches, its group companies, and networks. The collected oil will be refined and upcycled to create new value.
This collaboration aims to systematically collect and aggregate used cooking oil, with an expected collection volume of approximately 300,000 liters per year, according to the report.
The oil will then undergo quality improvement to be used as a raw material for producing sustainable aviation fuel, bioplastics, and biochemical, the report added.
