However, commercial usage is relatively stunted due to a plethora of drawbacks in the production process and economic feasibility of the fuel. In this study, the currently accepted technologies for producing synthetic jet fuels under the American Society for Testing Material (ASTM D7566) standard specification for aviation turbine fuel are reviewed. The emphasis is placed in terms of their reactions, type of catalysts used for the conversion pathways of Fisher-Tropsch (FT), Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) and Alcohol-to-Jet (ATJ), and the use of biomass resources as feedstock. The advancement in the production process and physicochemical properties of the uncertified biojet fuels are reviewed and discussed. Generally, Co- and Fe-based catalysts are commonly used for the FT process, while bimetallic catalysts consisting of Pt, Pd, Ni and Mo have shown excellent activities and selectivities for the HEFA process. For the ATJ process, zeolites such as HZSM-5, beta and SAPO have shown remarkable ethanol dehydration efficiency, while TiO2 and ferrierite have been studied for the combined iso-butanol dehydration and oligomerisation processes. Fundamental factors influencing the reaction efficiency including the feedstock properties, reaction conditions, catalytic reusability and catalyst supports are discussed. Finally, the key challenges and prospects for biojet fuel commercialisation are addressed UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uDDQjQkezjGDfelIObbS_ezkHFbkTIBm/view?usp=drive_link ER -
