Spun out of the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, we are building the world’s first integrated, bio-based supply chain for ultra-pure pharmaceutical solvents and developing next-generation HEFA-compatible feedstocks for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF).

PIONEERING A NEW GENERATION OF SUSTAINABLE CHEMISTRY & FUELS.

LOW-CARBON SOLVENTS

Our patented catalytic platform produces ultra-high purity acetonitrile and related solvents from renewable ethanol, cutting carbon intensity by up to 90% and eliminating toxic byproducts found in the fossil-based SOHIO process .

SUSTAINABLE AVIATION FUEL

Our Cocura® process generates a dense, extracellular oil that is fully compatible with existing HEFA refining infrastructure, providing a scalable, EU RED-compliant path to decarbonized air travel

Safion’s mission is to transform critical petrochemical supply chains into resilient, low-carbon systems—delivering secure supply, ESG alignment, and breakthrough sustainability for the pharmaceutical and aviation sectors.
