Gevo successfully adapted its patented technologies to convert cellulosic sugars derived from wood waste into renewable isobutanol, which was then further converted into Gevo’s Alcohol-to-Jet fuel (ATJ) fuel. Alaska Airlines is expected to fly the first commercial flight using this cellulosic jet fuel in the next few months.
