AIRCO (formerly Air Company)

Based in Brooklyn, AIRCO is an energy technology company that develops modular systems for producing fuels. Its AIRMADE process uses proprietary pathways and catalysts to convert captured carbon and hydrogen into formulated fuels, including diesel, methanol, ethanol, and aviation fuels. The company packages processing equipment in a compact, modular architecture designed for repeatable manufacturing and deployment. Its standardized platform combines carbon conditioning, hydrogen production, fuel synthesis, and downstream processing. Integrated software and AI connect process monitoring, system controls, and operating data to support distributed production. AIRCO also brings chemistry, product engineering, manufacturing, commissioning, and validation together in a continuous development process. Its fuels have supported demonstrations across air, maritime, and ground platforms with the U.S. Department of Defense since 2022. Manufacturing takes place at a 25,000-square-foot campus in Pennsylvania.
