Kazakhstan to build its first SAF plant
In Ukraine, UkrAgroConsult reported that Kazakhstan plans to build its first sustainable aviation fuel production plant.
US-based KBR has been awarded a contract by KMG-Aero, a subsidiary of KazMunayGas, and KazFoodProducts to provide technology and engineering solutions for the new facility.
The future plant will use PureSAF technology developed by Swedish Biofuels. It is based on the alcohol-to-jet (AtJ) process, which enables the production of aviation fuel from alcohol-based feedstocks, according to the report.
KBR says PureSAF is a feedstock-flexible technology designed to deliver high SAF yields. The company will license the technology and provide proprietary engineering design for the facility, the report added.
