Latvia’s NorSAF selects PureSAF technology for SAF project
In India, BioEnergy Times reported that Latvia-based NorSAF has chosen PureSAF technology for its planned sustainable aviation fuel production facility.
The announcement was made byTexas-based engineering, science and technology company KBR, which will provide its proprietary PureSAF technology for the proposed plant, according to the report.
The facility, planned at the Port of Liepaja in Latvia, is expected to produce 100,000 metric tons of sustainable aviation fuel annually. Commercial operations are currently targeted to begin in 2031.
PureSAF technology was originally developed by Swedish Biofuels AB, with KBR serving as the exclusive licensing and commercial deployment partner. The technology can convert a range of feedstocks, including ethanol, syngas, carbon dioxide and hydrogen, into sustainable aviation fuel, diesel and gasoline.
According to project plans, the biorefinery will manufacture both SAF from advanced ethanol and eSAF using green hydrogen and biogenic carbon dioxide, creating multiple pathways for low-carbon fuel production, the report added.
