Altalto
We are developing a commercial plant in Immingham, U.K. to make sustainable jet fuel in collaboration with British Airways. Altalto is expected to be Europe’s first commercial scale waste-to-jet-fuel facility. It will process household and commercial waste destined for landfill or incineration.
