Global Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2417 million in 2025 to US$ 5002 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% from 2026 to 2032.
In 2025, global Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene production reached approximately 3.77 billion liters, with an average global market price of around US$ 0.65 per liter.
Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (FT-SPK) is a type of synthetic aviation fuel produced through the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process, which converts syngas (a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen) into liquid hydrocarbons. The method works with different feedstocks, including natural gas, coal or biomass. FT-SPK is known for its high quality and suitability as a drop-in replacement for traditional jet fuels like Jet A-1 or JP-8.
The application of third-generation biomass gasification, CO₂ hydrogenation processes, and high-efficiency catalysts has reduced production costs by 34% compared to 2022. Green hydrogen coupled with FT synthesis technology has become a hot investment area, while the penetration of digital systems has reduced production energy consumption by 18%. The core products are synthetic aviation fuel (SAF) and synthetic diesel. SAF is rapidly expanding due to the aviation industry's demand for emissions reduction; the International Air Transport Association (IATA) predicts that global airlines will purchase 2 billion gallons of SAF by 2025. Synthetic diesel, with its compliance with stringent emission standards, is expected to capture 60% of the market revenue share.
The market structure exhibits regional differentiation and competition across the entire industry chain. The Asia-Pacific region is becoming the core of growth, projected to account for 27% of the global market share by 2037. China's expansion of coal-to-oil capacity and India's attraction of foreign investment through its PLI program are jointly driving explosive growth in regional demand. In terms of competition, international giants (such as Shell and Neste) are focusing on the commercialization of aviation biofuels and high-value-added products, while domestic companies are leveraging their raw material resource advantages to develop coal-based/gas-based routes. Meanwhile, the application of modular and miniaturized units in marginal gas fields is becoming a new growth point. On the policy front, the EU's CBAM mechanism and EASA's SAF usage ratio requirements (5% by 2030 and 63% by 2050) constitute the core driving force. Meanwhile, the business model is shifting towards "raw material diversification + full life-cycle carbon footprint management," with the proportion of low-carbon raw materials such as waste and biomass expected to increase to 29% by 2030, driving the industry to transform from an energy supplement role to a core solution for carbon neutrality.
