Sulzer technology enabling sustainable aviation fuel production in China
Sulzer solutions have been selected for high-quality Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production in support of China’s carbon neutrality strategy. Made from renewable feedstocks, SAF meets rigorous aviation performance standards while cutting greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%. The facility, based in Shandong, China, is expected to produce 500,000 metric tons of SAF per year ⎯ enough to fuel over 4,400 flights from Shanghai to Vancouver or Rome, but with a significantly reduced environmental impact.
