With a potential to reduce lifecycle carbon emissions by up to 80 %, depending on the feedstock used, sustainable aviation fuels have come under the spotlight. The aviation industry is a hard to abate sector and is currently exploring as well as incorporating sustainable aviation fuels into their airline operations in order to lower carbon emissions and ultimately achieve net zero emissions by 2050. PROCESS Worldwide offers an insight into this interesting space.
