Initial work on land requirements, logistics, fuel and licensing has already been executed.
Based on forest raw materials and alcohols, the Cortus and SB’s joint facility for biojet fuel will be the first of its kind and has large global market potential. Swedish Biofuel’s biojet fuel now meets current standards for aviation fuel and the biojet fuel has been successfully tested by the US and Swedish defence and civil aviation authorities over the past ten years.
In addition to green jet fuel, the factory will be able to produce other valuable products, such as liquid transport biofuels and biochemicals. The technology planned for the factory is a combination of Cortus WoodRoll biomass gasification process and Swedish Biofuel's catalytic process for biojet fuel. The WoodRoll process converts wood into synthesis gas, which together with alcohol, forms the raw material for Swedish Biofuel’s catalytic process for green aviation fuel.
