波音和巴西航空工业公司将开设一个联合研究中心，推动巴西可持续航空生物燃料业的发展。这两家公司将联合开展生物燃料研究，并协调与巴西各大学及其他机构开展的研究活动并为其提供资金支持。研究将重点关注能够填补供应链中有关巴西可持续航空生物燃料缺口的技术，例如原料生产和加工技术。这两家公司开设的生物燃料研究中心位于圣若泽多斯坎波斯科技园(Sao Jose dos Campos Technology Park)。

2013 年，波音、巴西航空工业公司和圣保罗国家研究基金会 完成了“Flightpath to Aviation Biofuels in Brazil”行动计划，该计划发现了潜在生物燃料供应链中存在的缺口。当实现可持续生产时，相对于石油喷气燃料，生物燃油料将在飞机的生命周期内减少50%-80%的碳排放。

Boeing and Embraer S.A. announced plans to open a joint research center to advance a sustainable aviation biofuel industry in Brazil. The two companies will perform joint biofuel research, as well as fund and coordinate research with Brazilian universities and other institutions. The research will focus on technologies that address gaps in the supply chain for sustainable aviation biofuel in Brazil, such as feedstock production and processing technologies. The companies' biofuel research center will be located in Sao Jose dos Campos Technology Park. In 2013, Boeing, Embraer, and the Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa of the State of Sao Paulo(FAPESP) completed an action plan—Flightpath to Aviation Biofuels in Brazil—that identified gaps in a potential biofuel supply chain. When produced sustainably, aviation biofuel emits 50 to 80% lower carbon emissions through its life cycle than petroleum jet fuel.
