| Abstract | Jet fuel helps move people and goods across long distances. A reliable affordable fuel supply is central to U.S. economic strength and national security. Sustainable aviation fuel made from domestic biomass can strengthen U.S. energy independence. It also can create high-value markets for U.S. farmers and rural industries. Current biomass-to-jet fuel pathways are costly because plant-based feedstocks are chemically diverse. This requires multiple catalytic steps and energy-intensive separations |
