Threshold Sooting Index of Sustainable Aviation Fuel Candidates from Composition Input Alone: Progress toward Uncertainty Quantification

Randall C. Boehm et al.

Summary: A quantitative structure-property relationship model has been developed to predict the threshold sooting index (TSI) of arbitrary mixtures of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. The model utilizes molecular fragments, a global shift, and a penalty factor to make predictions. The model has been validated and found to accurately predict TSI values.

Viscosity and Density of Narrow Distillation Cuts from Refined Petroleum- and Synthetic-Derived Distillates in the-60 to+60 °C Range

Felix Link et al.

Summary: Aviation turbine fuel needs to maintain fluidity at low temperatures during high-altitude flights. The viscosity-temperature relation of petroleum-derived jet fuel is described by the MacCoull correlation in ASTM D341. Compliance with viscosity limits is crucial for synthesized paraffinic kerosene (SPK) to be approved as synthetic jet fuel. Measurement and comparison of viscosity and freezing point were conducted for different fractions of petroleum-based kerosene and SPK. The freezing point was found to be influenced by the freezing point characteristics of the n-alkanes.

Screening and evaluation of biomass upgrading strategies for sustainable transportation fuel production with biomass-derived volatile fatty acids

Jacob H. Miller et al.

Summary: Biomass conversion to fuels and chemicals is crucial to decarbonization, but choosing an advantageous upgrading pathway out of many options is challenging. Researchers present a method enabling high-throughput screening by approximating upgrading unit operations and drop-in compatibility of products, and apply it to VFA conversion to liquid transportation fuels.

Viscosity and Density of Narrow Distillation Cuts from Refined Petroleum- and Synthetic-Derived Distillates in the-60 to+60 degrees C Range

Felix Link et al.

Summary: The viscosity-temperature relationship and freezing point of aviation turbine fuel are important for flight safety and performance, and must comply with specific specifications. The MacCoull correlation is found to accurately describe the viscosity-temperature dependencies of both petroleum-derived and synthetic jet fuels. However, there may be underestimation when extrapolating viscosity data to -40 degrees C. Additionally, differential scanning calorimetry is a reliable method for determining the freezing point of jet fuel, and variations in freezing point with increasing boiling point were observed.

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.

Toward net-zero sustainable aviation fuel with wet waste-derived volatile fatty acids

Nabila A. Huq et al.

Summary: The paper evaluates the catalytic conversion of food waste-derived VFAs to produce n-paraffin SAF for near-term use as a 10 vol% blend for ASTM Fast Track qualification and produce a highly branched, isoparaffin VFA-SAF to increase the renewable blend limit. VFA ketonization models assessed the carbon chain length distributions suitable for each VFA-SAF conversion pathway, and food waste-derived VFA ketonization was demonstrated for >100 h of time on stream at approximately theoretical yield. Fuel property blending models and experimental testing determined normal paraffin VFA-SAF meets 10 vol% fuel specifications for Fast Track. Synergistic blending with isoparaffin VFA-SAF increased the blend limit to 70 vol% by addressing flashpoint and viscosity constraints, with sooting 34% lower than fossil jet. Techno-economic analysis evaluated the major catalytic process cost-drivers, determining the minimum fuel selling price as a function of VFA production costs. Life cycle analysis determined that if food waste is diverted from landfills to avoid methane emissions, VFA-SAF could enable up to 165% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions relative to fossil jet.
