SEDC Energy (SEDCE) is collaborating with Sulzer Chemtech to deploy its proprietary BioFlux technology at Sarawak\u2019s upcoming Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) pilot plant. The facility will convert locally sourced HEFA (Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids) feedstocks \u2013 including algae oil, palm oil mill effluent (POME), animal fats and used cooking oil (UCO) \u2013 into SAF.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sulzer will support SEDCE throughout the project, including process design engineering, detailed design, and modular plant supply. Once construction is complete, it will also deliver commissioning, and startup services. Sulzer\u2019s involvement marks a key milestone in advancing sustainable aviation across Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project supports SEDCE\u2019s initiatives to strengthen Sarawak\u2019s global standing in emerging energy sectors and the downstream oil and gas industry. SEDCE is spearheading the development of this comprehensive new energy ecosystem to foster a greener, more sustainable future for the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BioFlux technology, developed by Duke Technologies LLC in the United States and globally licensed by Sulzer Chemtech, features a proprietary liquid-full reactor design that optimizes hydrogen availability and eliminates the need for a vapor recycle loop. This unique configuration, combined with advanced catalyst innovations, enhances yield, extends catalyst life, and significantly reduces production costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cOur partnership with Sulzer Chemtech represents a major step toward realising the vision of a sustainable energy future in Sarawak,\u201d said Robert Hardin, Chief Executive Officer for SEDCE<\/strong>. \u201cWith advanced technologies like BioFlux, we are tapping into the potential of our local resources to produce world-class sustainable aviation fuel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilja Mikenberg, Global Head Process Solutions at Sulzer Chemtech added<\/strong>: \u201cWe are proud to support SEDCE on this landmark SAF project. Our BioFlux technology offers a high-performance, low-emissions solution that aligns with both environmental goals and long-term operational efficiency.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
