CNegSAF PROJECT

The CNegSAF Program is looking for a Research Engineer in Technoeconomic and environmental analysis at the Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise (CREATE) in Singapore. Hosted by CNRS@CREATE, the program 'Carbon Negative production of advanced Sustainable Aviation Fuels using twin synthetic bacterial consortia Project' (CNegSAF) is an international collaboration between world leading institutions in France and Singapore including CNRS, Toulouse Biotechnology Institute (TBI), National University of Singapore, A*Star (SIFBI), and Nanyang Technological University. CNegSAF aims to demonstrate the feasibility of using a synthetic bacterial consortium to convert green hydrogen and concentrated waste CO2 (released by chemicals companies) into sustainable aviation biofuels. This innovative research program has the potential to significantly contribute to Singapore's and the world net-zero emissions target while supplying sustainable aviation fuels to the aviation industry.
