| Description |
This paper presents the results of the United States Air Force program to determine the costs, yields, physical characteristics and chemical properties of aviation turbine fuels, Grades JP-4 and JP-8, produced from Kentucky and Utah bitumens. The bitumens were upgraded by the Ashland Petroleum Company and the Applied Research and Development Division of Sun Company for the Fuels Branch of the Aero Propulsion Laboratory at Wright-Patterson AFB Ohio. The results obtained in this program indicated that high quality aviation turbine fuels can be produced from tar sands bitumens. |
