From July 14-19, our member SDU University of Southern Denmark presented a scientific poster on our project at the 18th International Congress on Catalysis in Lyon, France.
The poster, titled “LCA of Power-to-Liquid Kerosene Production via Fischer-Tropsch Pathway, Benchmarking for Olefins Pathway in the TAKE-OFF Project,” was presented by Hadis Marami, Research Assistant at SDU.
As climate change concerns escalate and the aviation industry’s carbon footprint remains a critical issue, the push for sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) is more important than ever. SAFs, derived from renewable resources, offer a promising solution to reduce carbon emissions compared to traditional fossil-based fuels. Among the innovative SAF production technologies, Power-to-Liquids (PtL) is emerging as a leading method in the aviation sector. PtL involves converting CO₂ and H₂ into fuel through chemical processes like Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, a proven technique for producing SAFs.
The TAKE-OFF project, launched in 2021, aims to develop next-generation technology for producing sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) from CO₂ and H₂, addressing the aviation industry’s carbon footprint through innovative Power-to-Liquids (PtL) technology. TAKE-OFF’s technology involves two process lines:
- Line 1: Captured CO₂ and H₂ are first converted to Methanol (MeOH)/ dimethyl ether (DME), then to light olefins
- Line 2: Directly converts H₂ and CO₂ to light olefins with process improvements from TAKE-OFF’s research.
