Topic of presentation:

Recent advancements in the Production of Sustainable Aviation Fuels from Bioresources: Prospects and Challenges

Main content of presentation:

The aviation industry is expected to grow over the next two decades in tandem with the growing population, which will inadvertently lead to the increase in pollutant emissions and greenhouse gases. The aviation community has set an ambitious decarbonization roadmap, by targeting a reduction of CO2 emissions by 50% (relative to 2005 level) for the aviation sector by 2050. One of the major thrusts in reducing GHG emissions is by adopting sustainable jet fuel derived from bioresources and wastes. In this talk, the progress in the production pathways of biojet fuels and emerging fuel technologies are examined, along with the properties specification that must be met in order to qualify as fit-for-purpose jet fuel. Potential biomass feedstocks in China and the reacting conditions needed for the production of bio-jet fuels are discussed. Finally, the impact of aviation bio-jet fuel on the environment will be examined from the point of sustainability and life cycle assessment.
