Sustainability of Biojet Fuel

Biojet Fuel: Current Technology and Future Prospect

Part of the book series: Clean Energy Production Technologies ((CEPT))

Abstract

The unavoidable detrimental impacts on the environment due to continuous dependency on traditional jet fuels have urged global initiatives in the direction of alternate possibilities for the aviation sector. The lack of possibilities for decarbonization of fossil fuels has made the adoption of biojet fuels (BJF) a success because of their critical contribution to the aviation sector as a means to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The long lifespan and substantial capital expenses of aircraft make the rapid substitution with carbon-neutral technologies a less favorable choice. Therefore, “drop-in” solutions that can be installed seamlessly in the engines of current aircraft may be needed. The usage of lignocellulosic biomass in the Fischer-Tropsch production pathway has the highest probability of reducing GHG emissions and could possibly be useful for the mid- to long-range objectives of the airline sector, but because of its restricted technological development and higher capital expenditures, more study and optimization are needed before it can be implemented on a large scale. Practically, the “optimum” raw materials and advancements in logistics management are significantly reliant on spatiotemporal parameters. Furthermore, most studied factors are connected to one another, and the strategies that are operative in the mitigation of GHG emissions are mostly expensive. Therefore, guidelines must be rationalized via the constituents of logistics management to aid the economic and long-term use of BJF.
