中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻网2月5日报道，日本纸业（Nippon Paper）在一份声明中表示，日本纸业、住友（Sumitomo）和绿色地球研究所（Green Earth Institute）同意联合研究用木质生物质生产生物乙醇。
如果成功，该项目将在2027财年从日本纸业的工厂生产生物乙醇，作为日本计划逐步增加航空工业可持续航空燃料(SAF)生产的原料。
全球航空业正在考虑利用SAF（由农业废弃物和食用油等原料生产）来实现2050年的净零排放目标。日本计划在同年实现碳中和。
上个月，日本顶级航空公司全日空(ANA)和日本航空(JAL)增加了从日本商社伊藤忠(Itochu)和美国生产商瑞文(Raven SR)采购SAF的数量，这两家公司都承诺，到2030年使用SAF满足其10%的燃料需求。

Japan firms to study making SAF from wood
Nippon Paper Industries, Sumitomo and Green Earth Institute agreed to jointly study bioethanol production made from woody biomass, Nippon Paper said in a statement.
The project, if it succeeds, would aim to produce bioethanol from Nippon Paper's mills in the fiscal year of 2027 to be used as a feedstock for the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production Japan plans to gradually increase for its aviation industry.
The global airline industry is looking at using SAF — which is produced from feedstock such as agricultural waste and used cooking oil — to meet its net zero emissions target by 2050. Japan plans to be carbon-neutral by the same year.
Last month, Japan's top airlines All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Japan Airlines (JAL) expanded their SAF purchases by adding supplies from Japanese trading house Itochu and US producer Raven SR, as they both committed to using SAF to meet 10 per cent of their fuel needs by 2030.
