촉매 가수분해 제트 연료 시장 - 세계 산업 규모, 점유율, 동향, 기회, 예측 : 원료 유형별, 기술별, 용도별, 지역별, 경쟁별(2020-2030년)

The Global Catalytic Hydrothermolysis Jet Fuel Market was valued at USD 2.81 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 6.40 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14.53% during the forecast period. As aviation seeks viable pathways to reduce carbon emissions, Catalytic Hydrothermolysis Jet Fuel (CHJ) is emerging as a vital component of the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) segment. This advanced thermochemical technology replicates the natural crude oil formation process by converting renewable lipids-such as used cooking oil, animal fats, and other non-edible oils-into hydrocarbon-based bio-crude, which is further refined into drop-in jet fuel meeting ASTM D7566 standards. CHJ's appeal lies in its feedstock flexibility, significant carbon emission reduction potential (up to 80%), and compatibility with existing aircraft engines. Supported by global climate mandates like ReFuelEU and the U.S. SAF Grand Challenge, the market is witnessing accelerated development. Key industry players and refiners are investing in large-scale production facilities and forming partnerships to scale this promising low-carbon jet fuel technology.

Key Market Drivers

Rising Aviation Sector Emissions and Decarbonization Commitments

The CHJ market is being driven by growing urgency to cut carbon emissions in aviation-a sector accounting for approximately 2.5% of global CO2 emissions. Without intervention, aviation emissions could triple by 2050. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) and over 130 countries under the ICAO Long-Term Aspirational Goal have pledged to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, prompting adoption of SAFs like CHJ. CHJ fuels can reduce lifecycle CO2 emissions by up to 80% and function as drop-in replacements for conventional Jet-A, eliminating the need for aircraft or infrastructure modifications. Policy mandates such as the EU's ReFuelEU, requiring 2% SAF by 2025 and 70% by 2050, are intensifying demand. Additionally, major airlines have secured long-term offtake agreements for over 15 billion liters of SAF. These factors collectively position CHJ as a scalable and policy-aligned solution in global aviation decarbonization strategies.

Key Market Challenges

High Capital and Operational Costs

One of the primary challenges for the CHJ market lies in the high capital and operating costs associated with building and running production facilities. The process demands advanced high-temperature, high-pressure equipment, corrosion-resistant materials, and substantial energy inputs. Construction of a single CHJ facility may require investments in the hundreds of millions of dollars, limiting entry to well-capitalized firms or those with government backing. Operational costs are further elevated by feedstock preprocessing and hydrogen usage during upgrading. Currently, CHJ production costs remain 2-4 times higher than fossil-based jet fuels, making competitiveness an issue in price-sensitive markets. Moreover, the reliance on region-specific subsidies introduces financial risk. Geographical constraints linked to feedstock and hydrogen sourcing also limit deployment flexibility. These factors pose significant hurdles to commercial scalability, especially in emerging markets. Addressing these cost barriers through technological improvements and stable offtake contracts is critical to unlocking broader market potential.

Key Market Trends

Strategic Collaborations Between Technology Providers and Refiners

A key trend shaping the CHJ market is the increasing collaboration between technology developers, refiners, and engineering firms aimed at accelerating commercialization. CHJ technology, though proven, requires substantial investment and integration expertise. Strategic partnerships help bridge technical gaps, reduce risk, and streamline project execution. For example, Applied Research Associates (ARA), originator of the CH process, has licensed its CH Jet(R) technology through a collaboration with Chevron Lummus Global (CLG), enabling turn-key implementation solutions. Similarly, Aemetis is developing a 90 million gallon-per-year CHJ facility in California, supported by engineering partnerships and offtake agreements. These alliances also aid in securing feedstock supplies, qualifying for carbon credits, and retrofitting existing refineries to lower capital requirements. Through shared investment and operational synergies, such partnerships are pivotal to scaling CHJ production and expanding its market footprint.
