Global biorenewable development strategies for sustainable aviation fuel production

Kok Siew Ng et al.

Summary: The global commercial aviation industry is increasingly incorporating biojet fuels, with the HEFA pathway considered the most cost-effective and low greenhouse gas emission option. However, competition with the road transport biofuel market poses a challenge. Promoting lignocellulosic biomass and waste feedstock is advised to reduce emissions from food/feed crops and indirect land use change.
