Impact of Clay Treatment on Aviation Fuel Thermal Stability

Abstract

This report examines the impact of clay treatment to improve the thermal stability of aviation fuel. Experiments were conducted at pilot and bench scales, demonstrating the ability of clay treatment to improve thermal stability. Analytical measurement of fuel composition were also made in order to determine which heteroatomic compound classes are most effected by clay treatment enabling further examinations of the relationships between fuel composition and thermal stability.
