Brief Description

The aviation sector’s direct emissions account for roughly 2.5% of global CO2 emissions. Electrification may be plausible for short flights but is unlikely to be suitable for long haul flights; hydrogen powered planes are a possibility but will only be sustainable if enough hydrogen can be...

Discover the latest research into specific process and feedstocks for sustainable aviation fuel production as well as how they fit into economic, regulatory and political frameworks.

Description

The aviation sector’s direct emissions account for roughly 2.5% of global CO₂ emissions. Electrification may be plausible for short flights but is unlikely to be suitable for long haul flights; hydrogen powered planes are a possibility but will only be sustainable if enough hydrogen can be produced sustainably. This means that sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) are urgently needed.

Beginning with an introduction to the background and need for SAF this book goes on to look at specific processes and feedstocks for SAF production followed by a discussion of economic, regulatory and political considerations. With a practical focus it will be of interest to policy makers, those working in the aviation industry and those involved in fuel research and development.

About the Author

Leonard Uchejim Okonye is currently a research fellow at the Institute of Applied Materials, Department of Chemical Engineering Science, University of Pretoria, South Africa. His research interests are in energy sustainability and renewability, the development of catalysts and efficient processes for reduced CO₂ emissions in clean energy conversion technologies, CO₂ utilization, and sustainable green processing of materials for energy systems, energy conversion and management.

Chike George Okoye-Chine is a Chemical Process Engineer at the Global R&D of Avery Dennison Corporation in United States. He obtained his PhD from the University of South Africa, MSc in Chemical Engineering from the University of Lagos, Nigeria, and BEng (Hons) in Chemical Engineering from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria. His research interests include heterogeneous catalysis, gas-to-liquid fuel, coal-to-liquid fuel, biomass-to-liquid fuel, waste-to-liquid fuel, and CO₂ utilization.

Kabir Opeyemi Otun is a Research Fellow at the Chemistry Department, University of South Africa (UNISA). Prior to this, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute of Applied Materials, University of Pretoria and a Lecturer in the Department of Chemistry, Kwara State University. He received his PhD in Chemistry from UNISA. His research focus is on novel materials for sustainable energy applications.

Prof. Jianwei Ren is a Full Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Pretoria, South Africa, and serves as Deputy Director of the Institute of Applied Materials (IAM). His research interests include materials science, hydrogen and fuel cell technologies, atomic layer deposition (ALD), advanced manufacturing, and sustainable engineering solutions.
