SAF + Consortium Inc. aims to develop the first technological platform on a commercial scale for the conversion of CO2 from industrial pollution into clean aviation fuel using renewable electricity and H2. Such technology has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by 80% over the life cycle compared to conventional aviation fuel. The platform involves two stages: 1) conversion of CO2 to CO by the catalytic route "reversed water gas shift" reaction, and 2) reaction of CO with H2 by Fischer-Tropsch to obtain liquid hydrocarbons. The two stages have been researched and developed in the past separately. However, there is no detailed study specifically on their arrangement for the production of aviation fuel from CO2 and on the impact of technological choices on the quantity of kerosene present in the mixture of hydrocarbons produced by the process. The objective of the project is to identify among the options available the most promising techno-economic configuration to produce aviation fuel and then to validate and optimize the process on a pilot scale. Academic research activities will focus on process integration, as well as the design of the catalyst and reactors for the two stages for different commercial scenarios. Deliverables include integrated process design and a new class of Fischer-Tropsch catalysts that optimize selectivity for aviation fuel. In parallel, we will complete the first demonstration on a pilot scale. This project brings several benefits to Canada, including the offer of a carbon reduction solution to large emitters with limited cost-efficient alternatives; the synergy with other provincial and federal strategic initiatives (i.e. clean hydrogen); opportunity for Canada to be at the forefront of clean aviation fuels; significant GHG reduction at provincial and federal level, which results in improved air quality and impacts society and its quality of life. While generating eight highly paid full time direct and indirect jobs in the value chain, we will also train highly qualified personnel (HQP) with expertise in CO2 capture and conversion.

SAF + Consortium旨在开发第一个商业规模的技术平台，利用可再生电力和氢气将工业污染中的二氧化碳转化为清洁航空燃料。与传统航空燃料相比，这种技术有可能在整个生命周期内减少80%的碳排放。该平台包括两个阶段：1）通过催化路线“逆水煤气变换”反应将CO2转化为CO，和2）通过费-托（Fischer-Tropsch）使CO与H2反应以获得液体烃。这两个阶段在过去是分别研究和发展的。然而，没有详细研究具体关于它们利用二氧化碳生产航空燃料的安排以及技术选择对该工艺生产的碳氢化合物混合物中煤油含量的影响。 该项目的目标是在现有备选方案中确定最有希望的航空燃料生产技术经济配置，然后在试验规模上验证和优化这一工艺。学术研究活动将侧重于工艺集成，以及针对不同商业场景的两个阶段的催化剂和反应器的设计。可替代产品包括集成工艺设计和新型费托催化剂，可优化航空燃料的选择性。与此同时，我们将完成第一个试点示范。该项目为加拿大带来了几个好处，包括为具有有限成本效益的替代品的大型排放者提供碳减排解决方案;与其他省和联邦战略举措的协同作用（即清洁氢）;加拿大站在清洁航空燃料前沿的机会;在省和联邦一级显著减少温室气体，从而改善空气质量，并影响社会及其生活质量。在价值链中创造八个高薪全职直接和间接工作岗位的同时，我们还将培训具有二氧化碳捕获和转化专业知识的高素质人才。
