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.

航空涡轮燃料或喷气燃料是少数没有简单的无碳替代品的碳基燃料之一。由可再生资源生产的航空燃料必须符合现有的燃料规格。与 Greenfield Global 合作证明，市售 H-ZSM-5 催化剂无需任何修改即可用于轻质烃混合物的低聚和芳构化组合，生产富含煤油的产品（NSERC Engage 拨款）。除了进行概念验证工作外，还进行了更长的实验室试运行，以收集约 5 L 的反应产物，该产物是石蜡和烯烃低聚物的混合物。这项工作（NSERC Engage Plus 拨款）的目的是执行必要的精炼步骤，将该产品转化为半合成喷气燃料混合组分。反应产物将经过加氢处理和蒸馏以获得不同的沸点馏分。将确定可行煤油的沸程，并对适当的馏分进行表征，以确定其是否符合适用于半合成航空涡轮燃料混合组分的 DEF-STAN 91-91 和 ASTM D 7566 规范。
