Lignin deoxygenation for the production of sustainable aviation fuel blendstocks
2024
Overview
Lignin is an abundant source of renewable aromatics that has long been targeted for valorization. Traditionally, the inherent heterogeneity and reactivity of lignin has relegated it to direct combustion, but its higher energy density compared with polysaccharides makes it an ideal candidate for biofuel production. This Review critically assesses lignin’s potential as a substrate for sustainable aviation fuel blendstocks. Lignin can generate the necessary cyclic compounds for a fully renewable, sustainable aviation fuel when integrated with current paraffinic blends and can meet the current demand 2.5 times over. Using an energy-centric analysis, we show that lignin conversion technologies have the near-term potential to match the enthalpic yields of existing commercial sustainable aviation fuel production processes. Key factors influencing the viability of technologies for converting lignin to sustainable aviation fuel include lignin structure, delignification extent, depolymerization performance, and the development of stable and tunable deoxygenation catalysts.
Lignin is an abundant source of renewable aromatic carbon and is of interest as a feedstock for sustainable fuels. This Review provides an overview of production technologies, jet fuel requirements, effects of lignin chemistry, depolymerization techniques, upgrading of bio-oils and challenges for catalysis using real biomass feedstocks.
