The Pathway to: Sustainable Aviation Fuel Commercial Liftoff (Downloadable Report)
"Aviation represents roughly 3.3% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, and jet fuel consumption is forecasted to increase by 2-3% annually through 2050. Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is the only viable solution to meaningfully decarbonize our aviation sector in the near-term.
Green Steel Manufacturing
Stegra is a company focusing on decarbonizing traditionally hard-to-abate sectors, starting with steel production. The company is developing the world’s first large-scale, renewable hydrogen-based steel plant in Boden, Sweden. This facility will use green hydrogen to replace coal as the primary fuel for iron ore reduction, creating “green steel” through a fully integrated, end-to-end hydrogen process.
Technology for Capturing and Recycling Micropollutants
Matter. has developed Regen™, a patented self-cleaning filtration solution designed to capture microplastics and microfiber pollutants from domestic and commercial laundry.
Regen™ operates using a unique regenerative process to separate microfibers from wastewater effectively. Its self-cleaning filter design provides outstanding performance, a better user experience, and a truly sustainable design for domestic, commercial, and industrial applications.
Sustainable Solutions for Energy and Agriculture from Repurposed Organic Waste
Ductor addresses today’s environmental challenges in the energy and agriculture sectors by unlocking bioresources to make food production sustainable and energy generation clean. The company repurposes organic waste, transforming it into carbon-reduced fertilizers and renewable energy. Specializing in high-nitrogen organic waste that cannot be processed in conventional biogas systems, Ductor uses waste from agriculture, aquaculture, and other organic sources. This waste is fed into the Ductor reactor, where a patented microorganism consortium ferments it.
