Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
Fully synthetic sustainable aviation fuel is a jet fuel produced through a power-to-liquids process that combines captured carbon dioxide, water, and renewable electricity to synthesize hydrocarbon chains chemically equivalent to conventional jet fuel. Because its molecular structure matches petroleum-derived kerosene, it can be used as a full, 100 percent drop-in replacement in existing aircraft engines and fuel infrastructure without blending or modification.
