Abstract: With the rapid development of world economy, the demand of jet fuel is increasing heavily. However, the global aviation industry is facing the challenges of declining in crude oil resources and forcing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, the development of alternative fuels for aviation is urged since it could increase jet fuel resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in some ways. In this paper three types of current international alternative fuels for aviation, including coal to liquids (CTL) jet fuel, gas to liquids (GTL) jet fuel and bio-jet fuel (BTL) are reviewed from the aspects of material sources, process technologies, standard specifications and latest developments. Some suggestions for the strategies of developing alternative jet fuel in China are proposed based on considering the progress in domestic aviation industry, the increasing demands of jet fuel and environmental protection.
