Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) has demonstrated a process for producing synthetic fuels from CO2, water, and electricity at its Nagasaki facility. The method combines solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) co-electrolysis with Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, enhancing economic efficiency for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production.

This technology aims to support the aviation industry's goal of net-zero CO emissions by 2050. MHI is also exploring broader applications for synthetic fuels in other sectors, alongside ongoing developments in catalyst technology and decarbonization initiatives.
