Velocys is a UK-based sustainable fuels technology company that develops and licenses Fischer–Tropsch (FT) solutions for converting waste and biomass into drop-in fuels, including sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), renewable diesel and naphtha. Originating from Oxford Catalysts, the company focuses on compact, microchannel FT reactors, associated catalysts and process integration to enable distributed and commercial-scale production of low-carbon fuels.
Velocys supplies FT reactors, catalysts and engineering services to project developers and fuel producers, integrating gasification, syngas conditioning and FT synthesis within waste-to-liquids and biomass-to-liquids pathways. Its technology is designed to work with diverse feedstocks such as municipal solid waste and residues, supporting decarbonization targets in aviation and road transport. The company collaborates with industry partners on feasibility studies and project delivery in the UK, the US and internationally.
