Current Challenges and Technological Solutions for Sustainable Aviation

Abstract

This chapter aims to discuss the relevant problems in sustainable aviation development and feature the scientists' solutions addressing these issues. The chapter highlights and discusses the relevant problems in sustainable aviation development; features the scientists' solutions addressing these issues, for instance, by using environmentally friendly aircraft engines, alternative energy sources, and materials; and discusses the likely results in the economy of this practice. The research conceptualizes and contributes to the novel literature on aviation area for supporting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in aviation area. Since the airline shipment continuously grows and is expected to become the fastest means among other modes of transport, it certainly brings environmental problems into view such as noise pollution, discarded fuels and emissions from burning, from both airplane and airport operational activities. These have been underlying issues demanding constant effort for energy, natural, and ecological experts.
