Is the production of e-kerosene for airplanes and e-diesel for cars and trucks really inextricably linked?
The answer is quite clear: YES! This is because refinery-based fuel production is a so-called technical co-production, in which several products – from diesel fuel to kerosene and other by-products – are created simultaneously from one raw material. Whether fossil-based or synthetic. It is important to note that even specialized plants can only increase the proportion of individual products to a limited extent.
