Abstract

U zračnom se prometu danas velikom većinom koriste fosilna goriva za pokretanje zrakoplova kao što je na primjer kerozin. Korištenje fosilnog goriva rezultira u golemim emisijama stakleničkih i otrovnih plinova u atmosferu za vrijeme leta zrakoplova. To posebice utječe na povećanje Zemljine temperature koje prouzrokuje globalno zatopljenje. Zbog tog problema počinju se detaljno proučavati različiti alternativni izvori energije u zračnom prometu koji bi ispušne plinove sveli na minimum. To uključuje različite mješavine biogoriva s kerozinom, ali i nove, inovativne tehnologije kao što su tekući dušik, električna, solarna i nuklearna energija. Implementacija biogoriva je već započela kod nekih zrakoplovnih prijevoznika tako da je njena budućnost svijetla. Također se provode brojna istraživanja vezana za električni pogon zrakoplova koji bi mogao svesti emisije plinova na nulu.

Abstract (english)

In air traffic today, fossil fuels are mostly used to fly planes, for example kerosene. The use of fossil fuels results in enormous emissions of greenhouse and toxic gases into the atmosphere during flight. This affects the increase in Earth's temperature, which causes global warming. Due to this problem, various alternative sources of energy in air traffic are being detailly researched, which would minimize the emissions of gases. These include various blends of kerosene biofuels, but also new and innovative technologies such as liquid nitrogen, electric, solar and nuclear energy. The implementation of biofuels was already made by some airlines, so the future is bright. Numerous studies have also been carried out regarding the electric propulsion of aircraft that could result in zero emissions.
