Cemvita and Radix are advancing a circular bio-oil project in Brazil that converts crude glycerin, a biodiesel byproduct, into ultra-low carbon bio-oil for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The collaboration focuses on engineering Cemvita's biomanufacturing process into an industrial configuration, reducing costs by 40% per ton of bio-oil produced.

Radix is developing the engineering and scalability framework for the project, which aims to be replicable across biodiesel facilities. The project supports a circular bioeconomy by upgrading waste streams into higher-value products and is set to reach a Final Investment Decision by 2026.
