KOKO Networks aims to achieve universal access to clean fuels by promoting bioethanol for cooking in emerging countries. Bioethanol offers lower capital expenditure and faster time to market, along with environmental, health, and gender benefits. Kenya is a successful case study with KOKO’s technology enabling over 1.3 million households to cook with clean bioethanol, achieving […]
Oberon Fuels is focused on converting waste to renewable natural gas (RNG), methanol, and dimethyl ether (DME). They aim to produce over 200 million gallons per year by 2030. Their process involves anaerobic digestion of waste to biogas, which can then be upgraded to RNG or converted to renewable methanol and DME through catalytic distillation. […]

Ensyn focuses on the production of low-carbon, renewable fuels and chemicals from cellulosic biomass using its proprietary RTP® technology. Their business model involves building, owning, and operating facilities, with selected licensing. Ensyn has a history of continuous commercial production since 1989. A successful combustion trial of their renewable heating fuel was completed with Michelin, demonstrating […]
The World Bank Group (WBG) is actively involved in SAF-related engagements, focusing on country-specific feasibility assessments and strategy development. Engagements include Kenya (Mombasa Refinery), Ethiopia (SAF Roadmap), Zambia (Feasibility Studies), Colombia (Feasibility study), and Brazil (industrial decarbonization support). The WBG collaborates with organizations like GIZ, FAA, EU, ICAO, and EASA to inform continental SAF strategies […]
In this presentation, researchers chart the progress of a project focused on identifying cost-effective opportunities to deploy transformational clean energy technologies to treat organic wastes. It involves optimized conversion and biorefinery siting analysis, and characterizes the impacts of key assumptions on feedstock prices. The project uses a geospatially explicit, micro-economic optimized siting analysis, coupling experimental […]
In this presentation, researchers chart the progress of a project focused on waste-to-energy (WTE) technical assistance to local governments to support decision-making related to organic waste streams. The project mobilizes data, information, and knowledge about organic waste streams to local governments. It delivers tailored deliverables and shared resources, addressing specific waste management challenges and opportunities. […]
In this presentation, researchers chart the progress of a project focused on developing a technology for converting carbohydrates in paper sludge into hydrocarbon biofuel economically and sustainably. The project includes sludge selection, ash removal, enzymatic hydrolysis, dehydration, aldol condensation, hydro-deoxygenation, and fuel testing. The team contacted 17 paper mills and received 11 paper sludges for […]
In this presentation, researchers chart the progress of a project focused on a sorbent-enhanced chemical looping gasification (SE-CLG) technology for renewable natural gas production from biomass wastes. The technology integrates biomass gasification, air separation, and syngas conditioning into a single circulating fluidized bed gasifier. The project involves designing multi-functional, mixed oxide-based phase transition sorbents (PTS) […]
