	There are 7 biofuel production pathways (with 11 planned by 2025) which are certified to produce [[SAF]], to perform at operationally equivalent levels to JetA1 fuel<ref>https://www.iata.org/en/iata-repository/pressroom/fact-sheets/fact-sheet---alternative-fuels/</ref>. The development of pathways and technologies to process waste to meet the specification required will be required at an international level.		==Future==
