07.29.2024 By Tank Terminals - NEWS

July 29, 2024 [Biofuels International]- Firefly Green Fuels and Synagro Technologies have partnered to bring Firefly’s novel fuel-production techniques to the American market.

 

Synagro, the preeminent provider of sustainable solutions for biosolids, organics and residuals has agreed to be the exclusive supplier of the biosolids feedstock used in Firefly’s innovative process.
Firefly has developed a unique process to turn biosolids into a product slate of highly sustainable, high-performance fuels, including sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
“We are extremely excited to work with Synagro on this next phase of Firefly’s development,” said James Hygate, chief executive officer, Firefly Green Fuels.
“There is a huge future need for SAF in North America, and by working together we can bring operations online quickly, creating new jobs and vast volumes of truly sustainable fuel.”
As outlined in its inaugural Sustainability Report, growing sustainably is at the heart of Synagro’s business and is central to their purpose as a company. Expanding into natural and innovative adjacencies is key to its growth as a business and its purpose to have a net positive impact on both people and the planet.
“This is a perfect partnership with monumental implications,” said Bob Preston, Synagro’s chief executive officer.
“We’re pairing Synagro’s expertise in sustainable solutions for biosolids, with Firefly’s SAF technology to evolve the circular economy.”
Independent analysis by Cranfield University has shown that Firefly’s SAF offers a highly significant 92% CO2e saving versus fossil jet fuel.
Kip Cleverley, chief sustainability officer and chief communications officer, Synagro, added: “Both of our companies’ commitments on sustainability run parallel. Combining our strengths will have a net positive and circular impact on the planet and its inhabitants. This is the future, and we’re both passionate about leading the way.”
