As of 2023, fuel represents 20–30% of the airlines' operating costs, while SAF is 2–4 times more expensive than fossil jet fuel. [75] Projected cost decreases of green hydrogen and carbon capture could make synthetic fuels more affordable, and lower feedstock costs and higher conversion efficiencies would help FT and HEFA biofuels.

Evidence of the health effects of jet fuels comes from reports on both temporary or persisting biological from acute, subchronic, or chronic exposure of humans or animals to kerosene-based hydrocarbon fuels, or the constituent chemicals of these fuels, or to fuel combustion products.
Petroleum hydrocarbons such as gasoline, diesel, or jet fuel intruding into indoor spaces from underground storage tanks or brownfields threaten safety (e.g., explosive potential) and causes adverse health effects from inhalation.
SAF burns like normal jet fuel and produces the same amount of emissions while a plane is flying, but it has a lower carbon footprint during its entire production cycle, because it’s usually ...
A commercial flight to California on a Boeing 737-800 consumes 850 gallons of jet fuel per hour, but would accommodate 166 passengers, coming out to just over five gallons per person. A medium ...
The U.S. Department of Energy says sustainable aviation fuel can help reduce carbon emissions from flights by up to 70%. First flight using 100% sustainable jet fuel crosses the ocean Skip to main ...
JP-8, or JP8 (for "Jet Propellant 8"), is a jet fuel, specified and used widely by the US military.It is specified by MIL-DTL-83133 and British Defence Standard 91-87, and similar to commercial aviation's Jet A-1, but with the addition of corrosion inhibitor and anti-icing additives.
The U.S. government said Monday it took responsibility for jet fuel that leaked into a Navy water system serving 93,000 people in 2021, but attorneys dispute whether the families who are suing ...
