## About OXCCU TECH LTD

OXCCU TECH LTD is a UK-based climate technology company founded in 2021 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford.

The company specializes in developing a patented one-step catalytic process that converts captured CO2 and green hydrogen into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), liquid hydrocarbons for chemicals, and biodegradable plastics. OXCCU is headquartered at Oxford Airport and operates from Begbroke Science Park and London Oxford Airport. The company has created a novel iron-based catalyst and reactor design that allows for direct conversion of CO2 and hydrogen into hydrocarbons. This innovative approach significantly reduces costs and emissions compared to traditional methods. OXCCU's flagship product, OXEFUEL, is a carbon-neutral aviation fuel compatible with existing aircraft. The company targets commercial airlines, aviation industry stakeholders, chemical manufacturers, and plastics producers, offering solutions that integrate seamlessly into current infrastructure.
