For a light-hearted read, don’t miss the festive ECR Blog on the Supergen Bioenergy website which looks at how seasonal waste can provide the feedstock for conversion to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The blog covers a variety of materials, processes and pathways with anaerobic digestion (AD) getting a mention for food wastes. (Did you know Defra believes that, out of 175 million mince pies purchased, around 74 million or an impressive 42% are thrown away? See here for the source of this figure, and some worthwhile Government advice on sustainable festivities).
Thanks to the ECR bloggers for their well-timed piece, which even includes a picture quiz linking waste material from a traditional household Christmas to the best SAF production pathway. All the best for 2026!
