Japan plans to use waste wood to produce ethanol for sustainable aviation fuel
According to CCTV News, ethanol is one of the raw materials for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). According to a recent report by Nihon Keizai Shimbun, some companies in Japan are studying the use of wood waste to produce ethanol and plan to start mass production in 2027.
Sustainable aviation fuel can help combat global warming. Sustainable aviation fuel can reduce aircraft carbon dioxide emissions by 70 to 90% compared to traditional aviation fuel made from petroleum. According to the plan of Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, by 2030, the proportion of sustainable aviation fuel in the aviation fuel used by Japanese domestic airlines will reach 10%. At present, compared with the United States and Europe, Japan has made slow progress in building a sustainable aviation fuel supply chain and also has problems in terms of supply.

Against this background, some Japanese companies plan to effectively utilize waste wood recycling technology and improve the domestic supply mechanism. Japan United plans to carry out this work by installing the saccharification, fermentation and distillation equipment needed to produce ethanol at its waste recycling subsidiary. According to the company's plan, its annual output of ethanol produced from construction wood waste will reach 20 million liters by 2027, and the products will be provided to businesses that manufacture sustainable aviation fuel.

According to reports, the use of construction wood waste to produce ethanol in bulk is relatively rare. Ethanol produced from waste wood is more expensive to produce than ethanol produced from plants. However, if supply expands in the future, competitiveness may improve.
