Sierra Energy’s , Virgin Atlantic and partners have secured project development funding with a £ 410k grant from the Sandia government to build the world's first commercial alcohol-to-jet fuel facility. The facility will produce jet fuel by converting low carbon ethanol from waste emissions. “I’d personally like to turn it into value before seeing it as burying waste,” she said. LanzaTech is working on a sustainable green chemistry platform for production of acetone and downstream drop-in fuel and commodity products directly from biomass syngas via a novel energy conserving route in engineered acetogenic bacteria.
