Investigative Study to Determine Effects of Hydro-Treated Renewable JP-8 Jet Fuel Blend in Existing Fuels Infrastructure

Abstract

Hydro-Treated Renewable Jet (HRJ) Fuel also called Hydro-Treated Esters and Fatty Acids(HEFA) is a synthetic jet fuel being considered for use by the United States Air Force as well asother branches of the military and commercial aviation. The Air Force Petroleum Agency(AFPA) and Air Force Civil Engineer Support Agency (AFCESA) have been tasked withcertification of the fuel for compatibility with existing fuels infrastructure. In support of thatprocess, Pond and Company was contracted to study the possible effects of the new fuel blendson the existing fuels infrastructure.
