Synthetic aviation fuels, which use carbon captured from other processes, have the potential to decarbonize the aviation industry.
The world’s first synthetic aviation fuel demonstrator plant will begin operations at London’s Oxford Airport next month. OXCCU, a carbon capture and utilization company based in Oxford, is developing a facility to produce one kilogram of SAF daily.
Trial flights using 100 percent SAF have already been completed in different parts of the world. Estimates suggest that using SAF can reduce emissions from aviation by as much as 80 percent, providing a major boost to their research and development in recent years.There are a myriad of approaches to making SAF.
OXCCU’s approach varies from the conventional approach because the company believes that captured carbon is a better feedstock for the process instead of relying on food or biomass. The company also uses renewable energy to synthesize its SAF, making its approach more environmentally friendly than the rest.OXCCU claims its innovative approach has reduced the steps needed to produce SAF to just one.
