Honeywell to provide tech for SAF One project

Global renewable technology developer Honeywell announced that it will provide Ecofining™ process technology to SAF One Energy Management (SAF One) for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production.

“Our Ecofining process technology broadens the potential feedstock base for SAF and enables producers to adapt to shifting market conditions and resource availability,” said Rajesh Gattupalli, president, Honeywell UOP.

“By leveraging our experience and continuous advancements in process engineering, we aim to make SAF production more economically feasible. The installation of our Ecofining process technology with SAF One and TPL demonstrates our leadership in SAF production and ability to help produce renewable fuels at scale.”

Earlier last week, Tata Projects, the Tata Group’s engineering and construction arm, was announced as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) partner for the project.

“Our collaboration with Honeywell and SAF One highlights the value of early engineering integration and disciplined execution in delivering scalable SAF projects,” said Rajiv Menon, president & COO, Energy & Industrial Business, Tata Projects.

Together, Honeywell and TPL will deliver an integrated solution tailored to SAF One’s project requirements.

SAF One said the collaboration marks a significant milestone in developing multiple SAF production units globally, including one in India. SAF One will convert used cooking oil (UCO) and other waste oils and fats into SAF.

Honeywell and TPL are jointly optimizing the technology configuration to maximize capital expenditure, enhance project timelines, and deliver a solution aligned with SAF One’s global deployment strategy.
