As the aviation industry faces increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) has emerged as one of the most promising pathways toward decarbonization. Among the various feedstocks being explored, microalgae stand out due to their rapid growth rates, high lipid content, and ability to thrive in non-arable environments. However, producing SAF...
