Powering the Next Era of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)

The aviation industry is entering a defining decade. With global mandates accelerating and production pathways expanding, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) has become central to decarbonizing flight. From HEFA and Fischer-Tropsch to Alcohol-to-Jet and emerging Power-to-Liquid technologies, innovation is moving fast—but certification, performance, and safety remain non-negotiable. At the heart of this transition is one critical need: accurate and reliable fuel evaluation. The IQT® (Ignition Quality Tester) is powering this next era of SAF by giving researchers, fuel producers, and standards organizations the ability to confidently measure ignition quality—one of the most important indicators of combustion performance. From early-stage research to ASTM qualification, IQT enables faster development, better data, and more confident decisions.
