(COMAC). The demonstration flights showed the sound flight performance of the Chinese commercial aircraft, the COMAC said. SAF is an alternative made from renewable materials. Compared to conventional jet fuel, it can reduce carbon emissions by up to 80 percent over the fuel's life cycle. Using SAF is an important way for the global civil aviation industry to address global warming and reduce carbon emissions. A number of Chinese airlines have conducted commercial test flights using China-made

Fuel assemblies are the core of nuclear reactor. Engineers and researchers of Nuclear Power Institute of China have worked for years to develop China's own fuel assembly of commercial nuclear power plants, which was previously dominated by foreign technology. On Oct. 27, 2019, the first batch of 20 groups of CF3 fuel assemblies with independent intellectual property rights were loaded into nuclear power plant. The achievement marked that China has mastered the technology of high-performance nuclear fuel assembly and become one of the few countries owning independent intellectual property rights in nuclear fuel assembly design and manufacturing technology.
