Biodiesel Technology Plan of frame of the 7th research and development offers the European Union 9.5 million euro, total research and development throws 16 million euro, alliance of innovation of science and technology of plane biology fuel is founded in European Union level (ITAKA) , absorption member includes empty passenger group (Airbus) with European aviation matters pertaining to defense and spaceflight group (EADS) , include produces airline user from raw material all interest related side of whole value catenary. Activity of current innovation of research and development, concentration is in those who popularize plane biology fuel to commercialize application to go up, include the further development of relevant new technology and standard index parameter.
Raw material of fuel of biology of European Union plane basically comes from flax mustard oil, complementary the deserted frying oil that food meal course of study uses. Consider environment of technical economy feasibility, zoology is friendly model can last with raw material, do not take up especially crop farmland, the European Union uses barren and bedraggled land to be built in Spain and Romania respectively remove 5 flax to cultivate base, build in Finland produce per year factory of refine of fat of hydrogenation of 40 thousand tons of ability and fuel of fatty acid biology, at the same time the biggest the part of compound of active of high additional cost that spends other of extractive raw material, reach expectant gain level basically already.
In December 2015, have the aid of transforms Norwegian Oslo airport to cheer infrastructure slightly, fuel of first plane mixture biology cheers the European Union the system is born. Holand is royal aviation (KLA) , aviation of German Han Sha (Lufthansa) with boreal Europe aviation (SAS) become client of fuel of biology of the first batch of planes. Up to now, data of each operation index is favorable, especially biology fuel price basically already had equal competition capacity relative to traditional plane fuel.
In view of the initial success that fuel of biology of European Union plane develops, ITAKA already signed cooperative agreement with airport of American los angeles, building plane biology fuel to cheer a system, conduce to the dimensions that quickens plane biology fuel changing produce and commercialize promotion application.
