Swedish Biofuels AB is a privately held Swedish technology company founded in 2000 and headquartered in Stockholm. It specializes in the development, engineering, and licensing of processes for converting alcohols into sustainable transport fuels, with a primary focus on fully formulated sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
The company is the inventor of the original Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ) technology, patented in 2004, which produces high-performance, drop-in jet fuel and other biofuels from a wide range of sustainable feedstocks including biomass residues, biogas, alcohols, and hydrogen combined with CO2. Its proprietary PureSAF® technology enables production of 100% fungible SAF that meets or exceeds conventional fuel specifications, supports up to 100% replacement of fossil jet fuel, and has undergone extensive testing and certification through programs with DARPA, the US Air Force, Swedish FMV, and ASTM International.
Swedish Biofuels operates from Sweden but licenses its technology globally, with exclusive worldwide licensing rights granted to KBR. It has formed partnerships for commercial projects in Europe, the US, and Central Asia. The company maintains a small team of approximately 14 employees and has received strategic investment from Mitsubishi Corporation to accelerate deployment. It positions itself as a pioneer in advanced ATJ pathways, emphasizing energy independence, environmental sustainability, and local production capabilities for aviation and ground transport sectors.

PureSAF (alcohol-to-jet) licence and engineering for Kazakhstan's first SAF plant, integrating agricultural feedstocks to support aviation hub ambitions.
Revenue +23.7% to 5,568 bln tenge; EBITDA +45% to 1,655 bln; net profit +69.1% to 904 bln; net debt rose to 983 bln tenge as cash/deposits declined.
Two trilateral agreements set out a Process Design Package and a PURESAF ATJ licence to produce SAF from alcohol-based agricultural feedstocks.
A Framework Agreement was signed to start the Front-End Engineering Design phase for a SAF plant in Kazakhstan, aiming to boost biofuels and reduce aviation emissions.
