DS Danseok, First Supplier of SAF Raw Materials with '1 Trillion Contract'... Unrivaled Technology in the Industry

"Accelerating Expansion into Bioenergy with Direct SAF Production System"
First Supply of High-Quality SAF Raw Materials Produced after Full Operation of HVO PTU
Strength in Producing High-Quality SAF Raw Materials Based on Global License

Global resource circulation leading company DS Danseok announced on the 15th that it has completed the first supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) raw materials produced through the hydrogenation vegetable oil pretreatment process (HVO PTU) at Pyeongtaek Plant 1.

This is the first supply volume through full-scale product production since the HVO PTU completion ceremony held at DS Danseok Pyeongtaek Plant 1 in November last year. The annual pretreatment raw material production capacity of this process is approximately 300,000 tons.

This volume is part of the SAF raw material supply contract with the U.S. oil and natural gas major Phillips66. Earlier, DS Danseok agreed in October last year to supply SAF raw materials worth 1 trillion KRW over three years until November 2027.

DS Danseok's HVO PTU was designed based on a global license. It allows the use of a wide range of raw materials including used cooking oil (UCO), animal fats (beef tallow, pork lard), and palm oil mill effluent (POME). Additionally, during the impurity removal process, it reduces metal content, solid impurities, inorganic chlorine, sulfur, and nitrogen to trace amounts, boasting an unmatched capability in the industry to produce high-quality SAF raw materials.

A DS Danseok official stated, "Following the production and first supply of high-quality SAF raw materials, we will accelerate the expansion into the bioenergy sector by establishing a direct SAF production system. Through building a sustainable value chain, we will further solidify our position as a leading company in the global eco-friendly energy market."
