The vision? To concoct a nationwide UCO supply chain that will serve as the backbone of commercial-scale SAF production. It’s a wistful dance of eco-friendliness meeting innovation, setting Thailand on a course to carbon neutrality while giving the aviation sector a turbocharged boost to meet soaring international sustainability standards. Think of it as the secret sauce…
