Metafuels sets out to change the landscape of sustainable jet fuel, and has just picked up an $8 million suitcase from baggage carousel 3 at its local ZRH. The company is making the sky green — literally — with its new fuel, which it calls aerobrew. The company is focusing on jet fuel as its primary output, buying a ticket to make jet fuel conforming to aviation standards. “Operational safety is paramount from fuel handling on the ground to high-altitude combustion performance,” notes Leigh Hackett, co-founder and CCO at Metafuels. Metafuels’ eSAF technology enables a seamless transition away from fossil-based kerosene using a process they developed to convert green methanol to eSAF.
