Biodiesel, a mix of diesel and palm oil-derived methyl ester used by cars with internal combustion engines, as well as used cooking oil that previously was deemed useless are now vying to change the aviation industry.

Many companies are eager to produce SAF as airline operators are increasingly aware of the new fuel's potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The Bangkok Post looks into the trend aiming to give the aviation industry an eco-friendly outlook.
