Abstract: China's aviation industry is growing at the fastest rate in the world, but also facing increasingly stringent international emission reduction requirements. As the most effective aviation emission reduction measures,sustainable aviation fuel has broad development prospects and market needs. In recent years, the production of sustainable aviation fuel from biomasshas been regarded as apromising non-oil route for the production of alternative aviation fuels.The most technical and economic advantages lie in the hydrogenation of animal and vegetable oil and biomass gasification for the production of sustainable aviation fuel. However,factors such as feedstock availability, price fluctuations and high processing costs affect the availability and economic benefits of sustainable aviation fuel. The technology of producing sustainable aviation fuel from renewable energy sources has the advantages of unlimited resource supply, high efficiency of chemical reaction process and easy realization of large-scale industrial production, which is the most fundamental solution to the problem of sustainable aviation fuel supply.
