TAKE-OFF
Sustainable Aviation fuel from CO2
The TAKE-OFF project, funded by the Horizon 2020 EU program, explores the development of a unique technology based on the conversion of CO2 and renewable hydrogen to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) via olefins as an intermediate. This technology route aims to deliver a highly innovative process that produces SAF at lower costs and higher energy efficiency compared to other power-to-liquid alternatives currently available.
The TAKE-OFF route consists of capturing CO2 from industrial flue gas or Direct Air Capture which reacts with hydrogen produced by renewable electricity to create light olefins. These light olefins are subsequently chemically upgraded into SAF. All innovative steps upgrading CO2 will be demonstrated under industrially relevant conditions.
SAF produced through the TAKE-OFF technology could significantly support the aviation industry in reducing its carbon footprint and replace the utilisation of crude jet fuel products.
