A comparative techno-economic assessment of three bio-oil upgrading routes for aviation biofuel production (2019)
Journal Article
Michailos, S., & Bridgwater, A. (2019). A comparative techno-economic assessment of three bio-oil upgrading routes for aviation biofuel production. International journal of energy research, 43(13), 7206-7228. https://doi.org/10.1002/er.4745

The aviation industry continues to grow, and consequently, more fuel is needed. With the intention of decarbonising the aviation sector, sustainable routes that have the potential to mitigate emissions, such as biomass fast pyrolysis, can positively...
