The MINIMAL project will contribute to a radical transformation in air-transport by providing technology that will, in collaboration with the aviation ecosystem, substantially reduce the climate impact of aviation
Composite cycle core technology
Operational flexibility
36% reduction in fuel burn
52% reduction in mission NOx
80% reduction of radiative forcing from contrails
Up to 90% reduction on climate impact
Potential reduction
CO2
- MINIMAL potential reduction in CO2 (-36% if Jet-A) 64%
Contrails
- MINIMAL potential reduction in contrails (-80%) 20%
net-NOx
- MINIMAL potential reduction in NOx(-52%) 48%

On #MINIMALMonday this week we introduce Dr Andrew Rolt, Senior Research Fellow at Centre for Propulsion & Thermal Eng from @CranfieldUni. In #MINIMAL_EU he will design & build a hydrogen-fuelled test rig to demonstrate the potential for low #NOxemissions in #compositecycleengine
