Cause-effect analysis of the modern state in production of jet fuels

Abstract

The main methods of fuels for gas-turbine engines manufacturing are presented in the given article. Taking into account limitation of the world deposits of oil and other fossil fuels, the perspectives of various kinds of raw materials application for jet fuels production are discussed. Processes of raw materials extraction and processing, further manufacturing and use of jet fuels were analysed and their impact on environment was estimated. Various kinds of natural renewable resources are proposed as an alternative to traditional raw materials for production of fuel for gas-turbine engines. © Iakovleva A., Boichenko S., Gay A., 2014.
