Low-carbon technology specialist Topsoe will supply its technology for one of Brazil’s first commercial-scale sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) plants to be developed by Refinaria Riograndense.
Set to be operational in the first half of 2028, the plant will be based in Rio Grade and hopes to produce 16,000 barrels per day of renewable diesel and SAF.
Under terms of a signed agreement announced today (13th Nov), Topsoe will supply its HydroFlex™ and H2bridge™ technologies.
Topoe’s HydroFlex process takes feedstocks such as vegetable oils, animal fats, and used cooking oils and biocrude from waste and biomass and turns it into gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel.
