Chicago-based Sciaky will market the large-component additive manufacturing system it has been using to provide rapid prototyping services for aerospace applications, enabling other companies to build parts as long as 19 ft. from titanium, tantalum, stainless steel or Inconel with the technique.
Honeywell company UOP’s biofuel process technology is to be used to produce renewable jet fuel and diesel at a refinery being built in Fujirah, United Arab Emirates (UAE) at a cost of over $800 million. UOP’s hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids (HEFA) pathway will be used to process about 500,000 metric tons of renewable feedstock a year, half the planned capacity of the plant, which is being built by Dubai-based Petrixo Oil & Gas.
