中国生物航煤产业发展面临的挑战与对策建议OACHSSCD

Driven by the global aviation industry's imperative to achieve deep decarbonization,sustainable aviation fuel(SAF)is a key option for the sector's low-carbon transition.The Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids(HEFA)technological route offers notable advantages in operating costs and technological maturity,and is currently the most widely adopted production pathway for SAF worldwide.At present,the US and European nations are strongly driving market demand through mandatory blending mandates,leading to a rapid expansion in global production capacity.China's SAF industry has progressed beyond the pilot phase and achieved a certain scale in production capacity.However,it faces three major challenges:relying heavily on used cooking oil(UCO),with an underdeveloped collection system on the feedstock side resulting in a supply-demand mismatch,not taking off effectively due to cost disadvantages and the absence of policies and primarily depending on exports for its production on the market side,and the barriers arising from the lack of mutual recognition between domestic and foreign certification systems and difficulties of the full realization of its carbon reduction value.The paper proposes a dual-pronged strategy of"market traction and incentive support",suggests studying and formulating mandatory blending mandates for SAF,improves fiscal and tax support policies to create stable market demand,strengthens the construction of collection and management system for waste oil feedstocks and the relevant standard system,and accelerates to establish an indigenous sustainability certification system as well as promote international mutual recognitions.
