New Technology 1.) Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) : The aviation industry generates 2-3% of global CO2 emissions, and SAF offers a solution. Made from biological or non-biological sources, SAF can be used with existing aviation infrastructure to reduce emissions. By 2040, it’s crucial to increase SAF usage to 13-15% to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. o Overview : SAF is an alternative to conventional fossil-based aviation fuel. It’s designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation. o Composition : SAF can be derived from various sources: Biological Sources : These include feedstocks like algae, used cooking oil, and agricultural residues. They undergo processes like hydro processing or Fischer-Tropsch synthesis to produce SAF. Non-Biological Sources : These include synthetic fuels produced from hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2) via the Fischer-Tropsch process. o Benefits : Emission Reduction : SAF significantly ...
