Nova Pangaea completes trials to validate own technology

August 25, 2026 |

In the UK, Nova Pangaea Technologies, the UK company with a process to create sustainable aviation fuel from waste biomass, said it has completed successful endurance trials that further validate its technology.

The trials, which took place at its demonstration plant on Teesside, show continuous stable operation in production runs of up to 72 hours and achieved above target yields.

Nova Pangaea also noted it will be raising funds to progress its first commercial plant.

Nova Pangaea is working with British Airways and LanzaJet on Project Speedbird, an initiative supported by the UK government to produce carbon-negative aviation fuel from local waste biomass to decarbonie the aviation sector. For Speedbird, Nova Pangaea will construct four UK facilities to produce bioethanol from local wastes for upgrading to SAF.

Nova Pangaea’s REFNOVA process converts waste biomass and residues, such as wood chips, sawdust, or wheat straw, into ethanol, which can be used to make SAF and renewable diesel.
