Consumption of jet fuel is projected to double between now and 2050. However, creating a fully sustainable hydrocarbon fuel for aircraft has been elusive, primarily due to the stringent regulations surrounding aviation fuels. Meanwhile, the aviation industry has committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, when the demand for jet fuel is expected to double. Yuriy Roman-Leshkov, the Robert T. Haslam Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S.A., explains the intricacies of aviation fuel composition and the challenges of ensuring its safety and reliability at high altitudes. #aviationindustry #carbonneutrality #lignin #MIT #renewableenergy #ruthenium-basedcatalyst #sustainableaviationfuel #YuriyRomán-Leshkov Follow F&L Asia Ltd. for more industry updates here: https://lnkd.in/fGDzetn Subscribe here: https://lnkd.in/g2PczSm
