SDH Australia delivers patented technology transforming waste oils into cost-effective renewable diesel, advancing circular economy and Australia’s net-zero transition.
SDH Australia presents a patented processing technology that revolutionises Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) production. By efficiently converting underutilised waste feedstocks such as grease trap waste into renewable diesel, the technology significantly reduces costs and delivers high-quality, verifiable fuels. This innovation aligns perfectly with Australia’s circular economy objectives, enhances fuel security, and supports the net-zero transition.
Unsustainable Feedstock Supply: Global competition and ethical concerns limit supply of bio-feedstocks like canola, tallow, and imported used cooking oil.
High Production Costs: Traditional HVO production relies on expensive methanol and struggles with rancid oils and fats, often rendering waste feedstocks uneconomical.
Australia needs a domestic, sustainable, and cost-effective solution to meet growing demand for renewable fuels in heavy transport, mining, construction, aviation, and shipping.
Patented, Cost-Effective Processing Technology
National Decarbonisation: HVO reduces lifecycle GHG emissions by up to 90–99%.
Policy Alignment: Supports the Federal Government’s $1.1 billion Cleaner Fuels Program and NSW’s Renewable Fuel Scheme.
Industry Demand: BHP, Marr Contracting, ACCIONA, Laing O’Rourke, Cleanaway, and Volvo are already trialling or adopting HVO.
Circular Economy Leadership: Converts waste into value, avoids food vs fuel conflict, and enhances local energy security.
Australian Sustainable Finance Roadmap & Taxonomy: Enables low-carbon fuel production and circular economy outcomes.
UN SDGs: SDG 7 (Clean Energy), SDG 9 (Industry & Innovation), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption), SDG 13 (Climate Action).
2035 Targets: Direct contribution to Australia’s emissions reduction goals.
SDH Australia seeks strategic partners and investors to scale and license this proven technology. Opportunities include collaboration with:
Biofuel producers
Waste management entities
Energy infrastructure developers
Together we can accelerate Australia’s renewable fuels industry and unlock a sustainable future for hard-to-abate sectors.
