Applied Research: Bioeconomy, Renewable Carbon & Climate Change

Todays Latest Updates:  23 February 2026

Biojet/SAF: USA. Montana Renewables, LLC and World Energy Clean Fuels LLC announced a Sustainable Aviation Fuel agreement that will deliver more than 70 million gallons of SAF to the market over three years. Link 23/02/2026.

Biojet/SAF:USA. Atlantic Biomass integrated biomass-ethanol-SAF process allows the production of high purity SAF syngas feedstock. This creates a Dual Pathway system that can nearly double biomass to SAF yields from about 42 percent to 79 percent without adding biomass cleaning, syngas scrubbing, or other processing costs. Link 23/02/2026.

Biogas: Australia. This project will include a biogas anaerobic digestion facility, which will convert agricultural and food waste into enough energy to power up to 31,000 homes. Led by major vegetable grower Kalfresh and backed by A$80 million in investment from the Queensland Investment Corporation (QIC) and Wollemi Capital, the project is set to transform agricultural waste into energy sources and sustainable fertilizers, delivering far-reaching benefits to Queensland.

Biojet/SAF. United Kingdom. Carbon Neutral Fuels (CNF) selected Johnson Matthey (JM) and Honeywell to provide technologies for its 25,000-tonne-per-year green hydrogen-based sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) project. Project Starling, located in Workington, UK, will convert captured carbon dioxide into synthetic kerosene using green hydrogen produced by 120MW of solid oxide electrolysers from 2031. Within this process, JM’s FT Cans Fischer-Tropsch technology – which was jointly developed with BP – will convert captured CO2 and green hydrogen into synthetic crude oil. This will then be upgraded by Honeywell’s Fischer-Tropsch Unicracking technology. Link 23/02/2026.
