Project Willow to focus on recycling and bio-feedstock...

EY’s report made nine project proposals, including: hydrothermal recycling to break down hard-to-recycle plastics; dissolution plastic recycling to return plastics to virgin-like status; converting used cooking oil and other waste into alcohols; timber-to-ethanol production; anaerobic digestion for fuel production from animal waste and sewage; SAF production from hydrogenated esters and fatty acids (HEFA) cover crops; hydrogen production to power industrial plants, including sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and ammonia factories.
