In Utah, -CleanJoule announced that its CycloSAF product has formally started ASTM International’s D4054 process for qualification to be blended with conventional Jet A/A-1. The ASTM International process ensures CleanJoule’s CycloSAF meets the organization’s identified set of properties to ensure compatibility with airframes and engines when blended with conventional jet fuel. CleanJoule’s CycloSAF synthetic blending component is 10% more energy dense than typical Jet A/A-1 while tapping abundant waste biomass as the feedstock, the firm said. “Over the last several years the CleanJoule team has worked to hone our proprietary SAF pathway to deliver on our mission of eliminating the aerospace industry’s reliance on fossil fuels. Our CycloSAF product has undergone countless tests and has been supported by both the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy as they seek out innovations that enable decarbonization of aviation while also protecting our nation from price volatility, foreign dependence, and supply chain risk,” said Mukund Karanjikar, CEO and Founder, CleanJoule. “We are positioned to have our industrial demonstration plant ready to commence production as we receive approval to sell CycloSAF industry wide,” the executive added.
