California Company Develops Carbon-Negative Aviation Fuel Alternative
A California startup, Circularity Fuels, has successfully converted cow manure into synthetic kerosene that meets aviation standards for blending with conventional jet fuel. The company’s six-month trial at a dairy farm in the San Joaquin Valley used a proprietary process to turn biogas from decomposing manure into a carbon-negative fuel. With $7 million in new funding, Circularity plans to build a demonstration plant and design its first commercial facility, which could produce 75 barrels of fuel daily. The development was reported by AeroTime.
