One of the few carbon-based fuels that do not have a simple carbon-free substitute, is aviation turbine fuel orjet fuel. Jet fuel produced from renewable sources must comply with existing fuel specifications. Incollaboration with Greenfield Global it was demonstrated that a commercially available H-ZSM-5 catalystcould be used without any modification for the combined oligomerization and aromatization of a mixture oflight hydrocarbons to produce a kerosene-rich product (NSERC Engage grant). In addition to the proof ofconcept work performed, a longer laboratory pilot run was conducted to collect ~5 L of reaction product, whichis a mixture of paraffins and olefinic oligomers. The purpose of this work (NSERC Engage Plus grant) is toperform the refining steps necessary to turn this product into a semi-synthetic jet fuel blending component.The reaction product will be hydrotreated and distilled to obtain different boiling fractions. The viablekerosene boiling range will be determined and the appropriate fraction will be characterized to determinewhether it meets applicable DEF-STAN 91-91 and ASTM D 7566 specifications for a semi-synthetic aviationturbine fuel blending component.

航空涡轮机燃料或喷气燃料是为数不多的没有简单的无碳替代品的碳基燃料之一。从可再生资源生产的喷气燃料必须符合现有的燃料规格。在与格林菲尔德全球公司的合作中，证明了市售的H-ZSM-5催化剂可以在不进行任何改性的情况下用于轻质烃混合物的组合低聚和芳构化，以生产富含煤油的产品（NSERC Engage赠款）。除了所进行的概念验证工作之外，还进行了更长的实验室中试运行以收集约5 L的反应产物，其为链烷烃和烯烃低聚物的混合物。这项工作（NSERC Engage Plus资助）的目的是进行必要的精炼步骤，将该产品转化为半合成喷气燃料混合组分。反应产物将进行加氢处理和蒸馏，以获得不同的沸点馏分。将确定可行的煤油沸程，并对适当的馏分进行表征，以确定其是否符合半合成航空涡轮机燃料混合组分的适用DEF-STAN 91-91和ASTM D 7566规范。
