  2. Jet fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel

    Jet fuel is a mixture of a variety of hydrocarbons. Because the exact composition of jet fuel varies widely based on petroleum source, it is impossible to define jet fuel as a ratio of specific hydrocarbons. Jet fuel is therefore defined as a performance specification rather than a chemical compound. [1]

  3. Aviation fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_fuel

    Jet fuel is a gas turbine fuel used in propeller and jet fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters. It has a low viscosity at low temperature, has limited ranges of density and calorific value , burns cleanly, and remains chemically stable when heated to high temperature.

    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 ...

  5. Energy efficiency in transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_efficiency_in_transport

    Automobile fuel efficiency is most commonly expressed in terms of the volume of fuel consumed per one hundred kilometres (l/100 km), but in some countries (including the United States, the United Kingdom and India) it is more commonly expressed in terms of the distance per volume fuel consumed (km/L or miles per gallon). This is complicated by ...

    However, SAF accounted for less than 0.1% of jet fuel used by major airlines last year. The U.S. has set aspirational goals to produce 3 billion gallons of SAF per year by 2030, with 100% of ...

  7. Aviation biofuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_biofuel

    An aviation biofuel (also known as bio-jet fuel [1], sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) or bio-aviation fuel (BAF) [2]) is a biofuel used to power aircraft. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) considers it a key element in reducing the environmental impact of aviation. [3] Aviation biofuel is used to decarbonize medium and long-haul ...
