Twelve and Emerging Fuels Technology sign master license agreement to scale SAF production

Green Car Congress

Twelve has developed an efficient polymer-electrolyte membrane (PEM) CO 2 electrolyzer that uses proprietary CO 2 -reducing catalysts to split CO 2 with just water and renewable electricity as inputs, syngas (CO and hydrogen) as the output, and pure oxygen as the only byproduct. Twelve and EFT upgrade the syngas to aviation fuel.
