About
Altalto Ltd is a collaboration between British Airways and Velocys, developing plans to build the UK's first commercial scale waste-to-transport-fuels plant. The plant aims to convert household and office waste into sustainable fuels for aviation and road use, with the main products being Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (SPK) for aviation and naphtha for road use. The process is designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 70% compared to conventional jet fuel and reduce exhaust pollutants significantly. Altalto's initiative contributes to British Airways' goal of reducing net carbon emissions by 50% by 2050.

A company page draws on the SAFxCHANGE record: the agreement table (2013 to late 2023), the plants table (December 2023) and what the reader has found in the news since, marked unverified until checked. The categories follow the SAFxCHANGE value-chain map; they were assigned from the company's role in the deals and plants and from what is written about it, and a company can fill more than one. Names are matched by their words, so a company recorded under two very different names may show on two pages.
