Nextchem lands POME SAF project in Indonesia

April 1, 2026 |

In Indonesia, Nextchem, through its subsidiary KT Tech, has been awarded a contract for early engineering works and proprietary equipment supply for a SAF plant under development in North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. The plant is designed to produce 60,000 tons per year of SAF with high efficiency using palm oil mill effluent (POME) as primary feedstock, as well as certified used cooking oil enabling the valorization of locally available resources and supporting the deployment of economically viable SAF solutions.

The project will leverage Nextchem’s proprietary NX PTU™ and NX SAF™ BIO technologies, which have already been licensed for the initiative. The early engineering works will support the Final Investment Decision for the project, which represents a concrete step towards the adoption of advanced, low‑carbon technologies in the aviation sector.
