Carbon-captured jet fuel makes first commercial flight without aircraft modifications
SMRTR summary
American Airlines flew from Corpus Christi to Dallas Fort Worth using synthetic jet fuel made from captured carbon dioxide and renewable electricity, marking the first time this type of fuel passed through a standard airport fueling system with no changes to the plane or airport. Made by Infinium, the fuel can cut emissions by over 90% compared to regular jet fuel. Scaling production remains the next big challenge.
