Abstract:
Sustainable Aviation SAF is the main name used by the aviation industry to represent non-conventional aviation fuel. Aviation has always been, and remains, a training ground for the demonstration of national, economic, scientific, technological and military prestige in the world. In the last decades of the twentieth century, the development and use of sustainable alternative jet fuels emerged as a key factor in reducing aviation-related CO2 emissions. "Refuel Aviation" is an initiative that promotes the use of sustainable fuels, the so-called of SAFs (sustainable aviation fuels) for the decarbonization of air traffic, and represents the obligation of suppliers to increasingly sell sustainable fuels at all airports within the EU. Compared to the CO2 emission produced during the flight of an aircraft with conventional hydrocarbon fuel, kerosene, JET A-1, the use of alternative jet fuels can reduce this emission by up to 80%, depending on the type of raw material used and the method of sustainable fuel production. Alternative fuels for air traffic were developed (and are being developed) in response to the growing emission of harmful substances that is a consequence of the increasing growth of this type of traffic. The paper gives a brief overview of some of the goals and obligations of the use of alternative jet fuels from the perspective of progress criteria and further predictions in aviation.

Key words:
