Programme · updated October 2026

Where the programme stands today.

What is done, what is in progress and what has not been done yet, so partners can judge the stage for themselves.

Phase: Research & IPFirst of four phases. Next: lab validation.

Who does what

From waste to fuel. All in one plant.

Steps 01–05 · gas to liquids

Industrial waste to FT liquids

Feedstock checks, shredding and drying, gasification into syngas, gas cleaning and conditioning, then Fischer-Tropsch synthesis into liquid hydrocarbons and wax. Tail gas from the FT reactor supplies plant heat and power.

Steps 06–07 · upgrading

FT liquids to SAF and renewable diesel

Hydrocracking and hydroisomerisation, then distillation into a jet cut and a diesel cut. The jet cut is certified to ASTM D7566 (the standard for SAF) before blending; the diesel cut becomes renewable diesel.

Why now

The EU minimum keeps rising.

SAF covered under 1% of global jet fuel use in 2026. ReFuelEU Aviation sets a rising minimum SAF share for fuel supplied at EU airports, reaching 70% in 2050.

Roadmap to a qualified fuel

  1. NOW

    Research & IP

    Feedstock sampling, process design, lab search, IP protection.

  2. PHASE 1

    Lab validation

    Bench-scale gasification of real industrial waste samples, syngas analysis and FT catalyst tests.

  3. PHASE 2

    Pilot plant

    A 1 tonne/day pilot, sited in India first, producing SAF and renewable diesel samples for testing and certification.

  4. PHASE 3+

    Scale-up

    Larger plants from the same modular design, with fuel approval through partners.
