Sustainable alternative fuels, or SAFs, are recognized to have lower carbon footprints and
emit fewer greenhouse emissions. As a carbon-neutral alternative and intended drop-in …

Contrail cirrus account for the major share of aviation's climate impact. Yet, the links between
jet fuel composition, contrail microphysics and climate impact remain unresolved. Here we …

Global air transportation has grown rapidly in the past decade until the recent coronavirus
pandemic. Previous research has demonstrated that particulate matter (PM) emissions from …

Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) can reduce aviation's CO2 and non-CO2 impacts. We
quantify the change in contrail properties and climate forcing in the North Atlantic resulting …

The use of alternative jet fuels by commercial aviation has increased substantially in recent
years. Beside the reduction of carbon dioxide emission, the use of sustainable aviation fuels …

Conventional transportation fuels used in aviation (jet fuel) or in ground transportation
(gasoline, diesel) contain multitude of hydrocarbon components and are difficult to be …

Air traffic has increased by about 60% between 2011 and 2019 and climate forcers from
aviation have also increased, resulting in a strong impact on climate change. It is well …

Sustainable aviation fuels can reduce contrail ice numbers and radiative forcing by contrail
cirrus. We measured apparent ice emission indices for fuels with varying aromatic content at …

Nonvolatile particulate matter (nvPM) emissions from aircraft turbine engines deteriorate air
quality and contribute to climate change. These emissions can be reduced using …

In order to reduce aviation's CO 2 emissions and comply with current climate targets, the
European Union plans a mandatory quota of 2% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) by 2025 …
