Aviation is responsible for about 12% of CO2 emissions from transport, making it the second biggest source of transport GHG emissions after road transport. As a result, aviation is now
The aviation sector creates 13.9% of the emissions from transport, making it the second biggest source of transport GHG emissions after road transport. Over the last weeks, EU policymakers have
Last week, Misha Valk from our project partner SKYnrg presented our TAKE-OFF project during the 3rd Edition of ACI’s European E-Fuels Conference in Hamburg, Germany. Misha’s presentation focused on Power-to-X developments
The TAKE-OFF project entitled “Production of synthetic renewable aviation fuel from CO2 and H2” has received funding for 4 years from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement N°101006799 .
TAKE-OFF’s aim is to produce more energy efficient, and high environmental performance Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) at lower cost to decrease the carbon footprint and climate impact of flying.
In that context, the project will develop and industrially validate innovative processes for the direct conversion of CO2 and renewable H2 to light olefins and subsequent conversion to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Next to this, the indirect conversion of CO2 and renewable H2 to light olefins, via methanol/dimethyl ether will also be demonstrated. Both technology developments for the direct and the indirect route are complementary and serve to advance the development of the proposed technology chain, while also minimising risk by a multi angle approach.
The TAKE-OFF project is led by TNO and gathers a highly skilled and multidisciplinary consortium from the entire SAF technology chain.
