In India, The Economic Times reported that Honeywell announced that Jiutai Group has selected its UOP eFining technology to produce 100,000 tons of sustainable aviation fuel per year from eMethanol. The eFining technology, which converts eMethanol into low-carbon jet fuel, is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 88% compared to conventional jet fuel. “This collaboration not only marks the first commercial license for SAF production using Honeywell’s eFining technology but also showcases our using Honeywell’s eFining technology but also showcases our commitment to the sustainable development of the global aviation industry,” said William Yu, President of Honeywell China. Honeywell’s technology will be implemented at Jiutai’s methanol-to- olefins facility, converting it into a SAF production plant leveraging local wind resources for efficient production, according to the report.
