With the expectation of increased demand for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) by ten times by 2030, the company Universal Fuel Technologies (Unifuel) closed a $ 3 million financing of its Flexiforming technology, which reduces the costs of SAF production by up to 50 percent, and carbon emissions with The link. By up to 75 percent. The initial round, led by TO VC, will support the participation of Alchemist Accelerator, Claire Technologies and World Star Aviation, providing the company’s Flexiveforming process and helping to create a laboratory space in Texas to produce SAF samples. Flexible formation, which consists of a series of chemical reactions, converts different renewable material Traditional jet aircraft. The current aircraft fleet.
Joshua Vitosi, the administrative partner at TO VC, said: “SAF production today is facing a challenge due to raw materials and expenses, problems that are solved by Unifuel’s Flexiveming,” said Joshua Vitosi, TO VC. “UNIFUEL has designed the SAF production method more efficiently that reduces costs significantly with the maximum benefit from limited resources. The flexibility of raw materials that characterizes the technology of the company is given the ability to work in multiple tracks of the Sudanese Armed Forces, and partnership with the best players in any A path is more logical in a specific geographical region.
Unifuel flexible formation technique is a chemical process that can convert many sustainable substances, such as ethanol, methanol, renewable NVA and LNG (LPG) and others, into fuel or high -quality sustainable chemicals, including SAF. The flexible formation allows a path of ethanol to jet (ETJ) with almost half the cost of the current ETJ operations. The flexible formation is also a supplement to the most common SAF production processes by upgrading low -value secondary products, which can create better opportunities to achieve income for producers and maximize the use of limited raw materials resources.
For example, most SAF today is manufactured via Hefa (Hydrogen -treated and fatty acids) from sources such as used cooking oil or animal fats, which produce up to 20 percent of secondary products from Nageta and LNG. These secondary products have a much lower market value than SAF, which limits the chances of income for SAF product. Flexible formation effectively works to upgrade renewable NVA and LNG low -value to high -value SAF, which increases the return that the product can expect and puts more SAF in the market.
One of the main benefits of Flexiforming is that it creates the aromatic molecules needed to operate jet engines and other aircraft equipment smoothly. Modern aircraft are designed to work with traditional aircraft fuel that contains a specific percentage of these molecules, so adding them is necessary to create the Sudanese armed forces (SAF) ready to drop. While other production methods such as Hefa and Fischer-Tropsch make basic fuel ingredients, the aromatic addition of Flexiforming allows fully artificial aircraft fuel that airlines can use without mixing it with traditional aircraft fuel once SAF is 100 percent adopted by ASTM International (American Association For previous tests and materials).
“Sustainable aircraft is based on the development of the Sudanese armed forces that are not only costly, but they are able to work in the aviation industry as they are today,” said Alexei Peltiukov, CEO of Universal Fuel Technologies. “Through Flexiforming, we can give the producers of the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) the ability to make high -quality Sudanese armed forces (SAF) at reasonable prices that have the characteristics necessary to perform aircraft and flexibility in expanding their own rates. We are pleased to have the support of investors who understand the market gap that We can fill it and will support us as we make a low -cost ready -to -cost SAF a reality.
The UNIFUEL team has made more than a contract of research and intensive tests on its Flexiforming technology. With the conclusion of its initial tour, the company is preparing to enter the ASTM clearing room for a SAF certificate and will have the ability to build on the current customer base using the new laboratory to display technology more.
