Due to the lesser aromatic components of the fuel, Sustainable Aviation Fuel is also designed to ignite better in aircraft jet engines. This not only reduces the environmental impact of SAFs, but also improves performance and efficiency in aircraft that use it. Recently, United Airlines operated ...
Soon, sustainable biomass, such as forest trimmings and crop waste, will also be used to make SAF. The result is a fuel that’s chemically identical to petroleum-based diesel and can be implemented without changes to aircraft technology. Why is SAF important? The aviation industry is a major...
How sustainable is it? It depends on how it is made. To use the term “sustainable’’ validly, the fuel must meet criteria such as lifecycle carbon emissions reduction, limited freshwater requirements, no competition with needed food production (such as first-generation biofuels) and no defores...
benefits, cost is a major barrier. This is due to sustainable feedstock supply chain issues, as well as the expenses associated with production technologies. Costs are expected to drop as the SAF industry continues to advance, ideally fuelling an uptake in Sustainable Aviation Fuels across th...
"Sustainable aviation fuel" is an umbrella term for liquid fuels that are made without crude oil. These alternative fuels can "drop in" to existing aircraft and engine fuel systems, distribution infrastructure, and storage facilities - unlike electric planes and hydrogen-fueled jets, which are in...
Sustainable aviation fuel – what is it and why is it important? Tom Parsons, Air BP’s Biojet commercial development manager, explains what sustainable aviation fuel is (SAF) and gives his view on whether SAF really is the answer to reducing aviation e
Traditional jet fuel is made from carbon-rich crude oil that is extracted from the ground. When it is burned in aircraft engines, that carbon is released into the atmosphere. Sustainable aviation fuel, however, is made from animal byproducts or agricultural waste, oils from plants and other bi...
Sustainable aviation fuel has the potential to contribute significantly to the abatement of greenhouse gas emissions in the aviation industry—by up to 50 percent, depending on the airline, according to McKinsey analysis. But the SAF industry is still in its infancy. In 2024, production capacity ...
