Energy & sustainability Solutions
Energy-transition leaders Honeywell UOP, Johnson Matthey, GIDARA Energy and SAMSUNG E&A have come together to empower project developers and refiners with accessible, scalable and efficient solutions to harness the untapped potential of waste materials and convert them into renewable energy sources like SAF. The joint initiative creates an end-to-end SAF solution, from feed to product, leveraging the collective strengths of each collaborator. This integrated solution can reduce time between initial engagement and facility start up by more than 15%, resulting in 5-10% capital cost savings*
- Centralized Responsibility: One entity (EPC) oversees the entire project lifecycle—from design to commissioning—ensuring streamlined communication and decision-making.
- Performance Assurance: A single point of accountability guarantees project outcomes and reduces risk for stakeholders.
- Reduced Complexity: Minimizes coordination challenges across multiple vendors or contractors.
- Accelerated Project Timelines: Optimized workflows and modular techniques can shorten the time from concept to operation.
- Risk Mitigation: Integrated planning and execution can reduce delays and uncertainties.
- Scalable Technology: Can support large-scale operations with fewer units, reducing complexity and maintenance.
- Space Efficiency: Integrated design minimizes plant footprint, which makes the solution ideal for projects where land is limited or at a premium.
- Proven Safety & Quality: Adheres to stringent industry standards, reducing operational hazards and ensuring long-term reliability.
- Seamless Integration: All components of the Fischer Tropsch synthetic paraffinic kerosene (FT-SPK) production process are interconnected for optimal performance.
- Digital Twin Technology: Real-time simulation and monitoring can enhance predictive maintenance and operational efficiency.
- Experion® Automation: Advanced control systems ensure precision, consistency, and adaptability in operations.
- Financial Credibility: Backed by financially stable and reputable collaborators, increasing investor confidence.
- Cost Efficiency: Integrated and modular approaches can reduce capital expenditure and operational costs.
- Faster ROI: Shorter project timelines mean quicker revenue generation and improved financial performance.
- Quantified Savings: Theoretical models show up to 15% schedule reduction and 5–10% cost savings* when modularization is applied during the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) phase.
The SAF Technology Alliance Delivers Gasification Based FT Projects
GIDARA Energy HTW® Gasification Process
The most established method for converting waste-based feedstocks into syngas to produce fuels and chemicals.
JM HyCOgen™ Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) and FT CANS™ Technologies
Maximizes carbon utilization, and boosts SAF production to over 250%, helping improve the scalability of synthetic fuel production.
SAMSUNG E&A AHEAD Project Delivery
An innovative redesign of the conventional project execution method. This model is based on the Engineering Data Platform (EDP) and brings intelligence and automation to all areas of engineering, procurement and construction (EPC).
Honeywell UOP FT Unicracking™
Converts Fischer-Tropsch (FT) liquids and waxes from waste into ASTM-approved synthetic aviation fuel, producing 3-5% more SAF, reducing by-product waste and achieving up to 20% cost reduction compared to other commonly used FT-hydrocracking methods.
* Based on theoretical schedule and cost analysis when the modularization solution is applied in the EPC stage. Schedule analysis based on industry standard benchmarks for project schedule outcomes. Cost comparison is against an open ITB and using standard industry practice upside technology integration
