Amsterdam Schiphol Airport announces investment in sustainable kerosene plant

Amsterdam Schiphol Airport announced (27-May-2019) plans to invest in Europe's first sustainable kerosene plant, constructed by SkyNRG. The plant will be built in Delfzijl and dedicated specifically to the production of sustainable jet fuel, propane and naphtha. The plant is scheduled for completion in 2022 and will rely mostly on regional waste and residual streams for raw materials. SHV Energy will invest in the plant as well and become a buyer of its biopropane product. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol also reported that EIT Climate-KIC, Royal Schiphol Group, GROEIfonds, NV NOM, Groningen Seaports, Nouryon, Gasunie, Arcadis, TechnipFMC, Haldor Topsoe, Desmet Ballestra, Susteen Technologies, and MBP Solutions will be involved in various phases of the project.
