Sustainability Assessment of Alternative Jet Fuels |
摘要: |
To evaluate the potential of various alternative jet fuels, a consistent set of metrics should be used, capturing the fuels' impact on, for example, climate change, air quality, water and land usage, and production costs. The broad Project 47 objective is to evaluate and compare potential alternative aviation fuels in terms of overall environmental and economic sustainability. Pathways and fuels include synthetic liquid fuels manufactured from coal, biomass, or natural gas; hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids from renewable oils including those from algae; and advanced techniques of converting sugars and alcohols to jet fuel. |
