Jet Fuel from Shale Oil - 1981 Technology Review,

Abstract

The 'Jet Fuel From Shale Oil - 1981 Technology Review' culminated three years of Air Force Shale Oil related programs. Final economic optimized results of three processing studies evaluating the yield, cost and quality of JP-4 and JP-8 jet fuel produced from whole crude shale oil are discussed. Reported also are technologies associated with a newly developed nitrogen tolerant catalyst and conclusions of combustion studies performed on shale derived JP-4 jet fuel samples and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) analyses of the composition of shale derived jet fuel samples.
