Air CompanyESG & Sustainability Jobs

Converts CO2 into synthetic fuels - SAF, ethanol, methanol, diesel, and rocket fuel - using carbon conversion technology.

Air Company (operating as AIRCO) develops carbon conversion technology that turns CO2 into synthetic fuels and chemicals. Its AIRMADE product line covers sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), ethanol, methanol, diesel, and rocket fuel. The company also builds the physical production systems - from modular units like the AIRCO MAD Fuel System to larger SAF factories - and licenses its catalysts and processes for deployment by other producers.

Why it matters

The core impact mechanism is pulling CO2 out of the atmosphere (or from point-source emissions) and using it as a feedstock instead of fossil hydrocarbons. This approach targets hard-to-decarbonize sectors like aviation, where direct electrification is not yet practical. By producing drop-in synthetic fuels, AIRCO aims to reduce net carbon emissions without requiring changes to existing engines or infrastructure.

The company recently established a U.S. manufacturing hub in Pennsylvania to scale production of its modular fuel systems, signaling a move from R&D toward commercial deployment.
