cost. Ayas is needed for companies to reach 2050 Carbon Zero goals, and we are taking our technology downstream to create bio-based products to serve this need.

Ayas is also developing a full-circle bolt-on pre-reactor process for Sustainable Aviation Fuel ("SAF") producers that could make SAF cost competitive with fossil based jet based fuel by removing unwanted, non-productive feedstock ingredients to make higher value biorenewable chemicals and complementary downstream products like sustainable aircraft deicing fluids, which is the airlines' second largest carbon reduction opportunity after fuel and again needed for their 2050 Carbon Zero goals.

Ayas co-founder, Dr. William Sutterlin, won the US Presidential Green Chemistry Award, the EPA's highest award, for developing Ayas' patented process. Ayas' team has taken novel chemical processes from bench to pilot to commercial, and our CEO has bought and sold billions on pounds of the same chemicals we produce. The Birmingham, Alabama headquartered company was established in 2015 and is engaged with multiple Fortune 500 companies. We are now seeking strategic investment partners who want to reduce carbon while seeking a significant return on investment to build plants in the USA, South America, and Southeast Asia.
