Taiyo Oil Adopts Honeywell’s Ethanol-to-Jet Technology for SAF Production in Okinawa Starting 2029

Taiyo Oil has adopted Honeywell’s ethanol-to-jet technology for the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Production will commence at its Okinawa facility from 2029.

This will be the first production facility in the Asia-Pacific region using ethanol-to-jet technology for SAF and the fifth in the world. The aim is to produce 200 million liters annually.

Honeywell is supplying the refining process unit for Taiyo Oil’s Shikoku facility. With the ability to refine SAF from ethanol derived from various raw materials such as corn and sugar, it helps expand the options for available raw materials and address challenges amid the continuously growing demand for SAF.
