sustainable and renewable fuel sources, particularly within the aviation sector where
traditional fossil fuels dominate. Bioethanol, a renewable alternative derived from the
aviation fuel (SAF), offering potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and
conventional jet fuel. Bioethanol derived from various sources often requires
regions like the Philippines where biomass resources are abundant but underutilized.

Bioethanol, a bio-derived alternative fuel produced from the fermentation of
sugars, plays a vital role in the production of SAF through various processing
for aviation fuel, potentially reducing dependence on fossil fuels and their associated
crucial. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) peels, a potential source of cellulosic biomass,
have emerged as a promising alternative feedstock due to their abundance and low
lignin content (Tarrsini, 2019). The Philippines, for instance, is one of the world's

Analysis of the dried mango peels revealed a high content of reducing sugars,
lower sugar content. This difference might be attributed to the presence of pectin
within the mango peels. Pectin acts as a binding agent, holding onto the sugar
molecules and preventing their release through simple water extraction (Reddy et al.,
2011). However, the presence of additional enzymes like amylase and cellulase

bioethanol and the derived bioethanol will then be evaluated for its usability as an
aviation fuel additive, with considerations including the fuel's calorific value,
combustion efficiency, and alignment with standard aviation fuel specifications. The
project's scope might also include the economic viability of large-scale bioethanol
production from mango peels. A successful outcome could create new economic

ethanol is very flammable; its flash point is around 13°C (55°F), which makes it a
useful fuel. Because ethanol is polar, it can dissolve in a wide range of substances
and make processes easier. In its pure state, ethanol has a pH of about 7, which

ASTM D1655-22
This standard covers obtaining aviation turbine fuel under a contract and is
mostly meant for use by agencies that buy things. This specification doesn't list all
fuels that work well in reciprocating aircraft turbine engines. Instead, it lists the
following kinds of aviation fuel that can be used for civil purposes: There is Jet A and
Jet A-1. The fuels must be properly sampled and tested to see if they meet specific
stability, contaminants, and additives. The ASTM D1655-22 document outlines the
basic properties that Jet A and Jet A-1 aviation turbine fuel must have. It also
includes a list of acceptable additives that can be used in both civilian and military
aircraft and engines. Specification D1655 was first made for civilian uses, but military
planes have also started to use it. It is possible to find advice on how to use Jet A
Aviation fuel
Aviation fuel is more than just a way of powering an airplane, it's what keeps
them flying. It was made to work well with flying machines at different heights and
weather conditions because it was especially made for them. According to Dobos
(2023), aviation fuel is made up of a specific mix of fuels that work together to give
you the energy you need, keep your engine clean, and keep carburetors from
freezing up.
Jet fuel, which comes in two different types, Jet A and Jet A-1, is
specially made for turbine-powered planes like regional jets, most commercial liners,
25
and many big business jets. The history of jet fuel goes back to the middle of the
20th century, when jet engines were first made. As airplane engines changed from
piston-driven systems to more powerful and efficient jet turbines, they needed a
different kind of fuel to run.In the 1940s and 1950s, when jet travel was just getting
started, the fuel wasn't as polished as it is now. Over time, as the flight industry grew
and safety and efficiency became more important, jet fuel formulas were changed to
better meet the needs of jet turbine engines. One difference between Jet A and Jet
A-1 is that Jet A-1 has higher freezing points and different operating needs. Jet A-1
can be used in colder places or at higher altitudes because its freezing point is lower
than that of Jet A. Although these fuels have low freezing points, which makes them
useful for travel at high altitudes, they also have high flash points, which make them
safer to handle and use. As the business grew, there was a constant push to make
the fuel more stable, have a higher energy density, and have fewer impurities. These
changes made it possible for planes like the Boeing 747 and Gulfstream G650 to fly
farther and faster. Our guide on the most fuel-efficient private jets is a great resource
for people who are interested in private aviation and want to learn more about how
Jet A and Jet A-1 affect the performance of modern aircraft. The way jet fuel has
changed over the years shows how dedicated the business is to new ideas, safety,
used for and what it is made of. Aviation gasoline has been around since the early
days of flying, when piston-engine planes were the norm. Charles Lindbergh and
Amelia Earhart were among the first people to fly an airplane, and AvGas drove their
26
trips.The high octane number of AvGas, which is made especially for piston engines,
stops knocking and keeps the engine running smoothly. Over the years, it has been
made better in many ways. The first fuel used in airplanes had a lot of problems, like
did the need for fuels that burned better and had a higher octane level. By the middle
of the 20th century, AvGas had gone through many changes for the better. Lead was
added to it to raise its octane levels, which made engines run better.
Biofuel in Aviation
Biofuels are more than just an alternative fuel, they show that the aviation
pollution and environmental effects grew in the late 20th century and early 21st
century, which is when the push for biofuels really took off. But these fuels don't
come from crude oil. Instead, they come from algae, jatropha plants, or used cooking
oil, which are all natural and reusable. The switch to biofuels isn't just a change in
where the fuel comes from; it's also a change in how people think about the airline
industry's role in protecting the environment. Even though biofuels are still being
developed, airlines and plane makers are already using them in test trips to show
that they can work. The ultimate goal is for biofuels to work with existing fleets
without any problems. This would lower the carbon footprint of the aviation business.
At the moment, people are talking about "drop-in" biofuels, which can be used in

kernels makes them ideal for conversion into bioethanol through well-established
criticism due to the "food vs. fuel" debate. Concerns lie in the potential competition
with food production, raising food prices and impacting food security. Large-scale
corn production practices can also have negative environmental issues. Heavy
reliance on fertilizers, pesticides, and irrigation can lead to water overuse, soil
erosion, and water pollution. Moving forward, exploring alternative biomass sources
and sustainable farming practices is crucial. Developing corn types with higher
yields and lower fertilizer needs can be a start for a better bioethanol production.

process was carried out over various time intervals. The catalysts were then
researchers to analyze various aspects of the catalysts, including their surface area,
the functional groups present, their form, and the density of acid sites. One catalyst,
prepared over a specific time interval, displayed a high density of proton switchable

surface area, well-ordered porosity, and a large pore volume. The researchers then
determined the catalytic activity by examining the performance of the catalyst for the
process of fatty acid esterification. This process is used to produce methyl ester, a
type of biodiesel. The catalyst prepared over a specific time interval demonstrated
the maximum catalytic activity due to its high acid density and large surface area.

research provided valuable insights into the potential of this entire waste stream, not
just pulp, but also peels as a possible feedstock for bioethanol production.
The current study builds upon the discovery of Trinidad (2021), and explores
the conversion of bioethanol derived from mango peels into a specific type of biofuel:
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). While Trinidad (2021) focused on optimizing the
initial bioethanol production process through yeast strain selection and fermentation

parameter adjustments, this current research goes into the subsequent steps
required for creating a usable aviation biofuel. These additional processes, such as
pervaporation and mild hydrotreating, play a role in ensuring the final bioethanol-
derived product meets the specific quality and safety standards for powering
airplanes.
This study takes advantage of the knowledge gained from Trinidad (2021) on
utilizing mango waste for bioethanol production and expands upon it by going into
the area of biofuel production specifically for the aviation industry. This shift in focus
derived from renewable resources like mango peels offers a promising solution.
The study and the research of Memon et al. (2021) take the same approach
to biofuel production using a common source which is the mango peels. While the
study focuses on converting the peels into bioethanol, a precursor for sustainable
aviation fuel (SAF), Memon et al. (2021) develop catalysts for biodiesel production.
Despite these differing goals, both studies promote waste valorization and contribute

pure and high-quality bioethanol. The next phase involves the characterization of the
purified bioethanol. The study evaluates the properties of the bioethanol derived from
ripe mango peels, assessing its suitability as an aviation fuel. This includes an
examination of the purity and yield of the bioethanol, its physical properties, and its
energy and water content. The research then moves to the final testing phase, where
the bioethanol is subjected to testing using the ASTM D1655-22 standard. This step
is crucial in determining the fuel quality, stability, and emission profile of the
bioethanol. The study concludes an experimental set up for the bio-jet fuel fuel

and other factors, indicates the energy content of the bioethanol. It’s essential to
know this value as it directly relates to the fuel's efficiency and performance in
aviation engines. On the other hand, the water content in bioethanol is crucial as
excessive water can reduce fuel efficiency and cause operational issues in aircraft
engines. To measure water content, the Karl Fischer titration will be used. This
method involves adding the bioethanol sample to a reagent that reacts specifically
with water. The amount of reagent consumed indicates the amount of water in the
sample. Precise measurement of both the energy and water content is vital to ensure
