Sustainable Aviation Fuel: Blend & Contrail Lab

Interactive 3D SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) simulator: blend ratio and feedstock pathway against lifecycle CO2, tailpipe emissions and contrail ice-crystal formation, with a live cruising aircraft.

Fly a jet at cruise altitude and control the SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) blend ratio and feedstock pathway — HEFA, Fischer-Tropsch power-to-liquid, or alcohol-to-jet — to see how each one changes the lifecycle CO₂ footprint of the flight while the tailpipe carbon output stays fixed by the chemistry of combustion. A second live model tracks contrail ice-crystal formation against cruise altitude and fuel soot content, showing why a cleaner-burning blend can shrink the visible trail as well as the carbon number.
