2. Jet fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_fuel

   Biocides are to remediate microbial (i.e., bacterial and fungal) growth present in aircraft fuel systems. Two biocides were previously approved for use by most aircraft and turbine engine original equipment manufacturers (OEMs); Kathon FP1.5 Microbiocide and Biobor JF. [25] Biobor JF is currently the only biocide available for aviation use.

3. Aviation biofuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_biofuel

   An aviation biofuel (also known as bio-jet fuel, [1] sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) or bio-aviation fuel (BAF) [2]) is a biofuel used to power aircraft. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) considers it a key element in reducing the environmental impact of aviation. [3] Aviation biofuel is used to decarbonize medium and long-haul ...

   Fuel was produced by Applied Research Associates (ARA) and Chevron Lummus Global (CLG) from carinata oil supplied by Agrisoma Biosciences. [25] March 2013: Paramus Flying Club: Cessna 182 Skylane: Waste vegetable oil: First piston engine aircraft to fly with a 50/50 blend of aviation biofuel and conventional Jet-A (as specified by ASTM D7566).

5. JP-7 - Wikipedia

   The Pratt & Whitney J58 (JT11D-20) turbojet aero engine, which had a specific fuel requirement; namely JP-7 turbine fuel.. Turbine Fuel Low Volatility JP-7, commonly known as JP-7 (referred to as Jet Propellant 7 prior to MIL-DTL-38219 [1]) is a specialized type of jet fuel developed at Pratt and Whitney by master chemist Clarence Brown CB Eichman in 1955 for the Central Intelligence Agency ...

6. Microbial corrosion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_corrosion

   They live in the water-fuel interface of the water droplets, form dark black/brown/green, gel-like mats, and cause microbial corrosion to plastic and rubber parts of the aircraft fuel system by consuming them, and to the metal parts by the means of their acidic metabolic products. They are also incorrectly called algae due to their appearance.

7. Fuel system icing inhibitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_System_Icing_Inhibitor

   Fuel system icing inhibitor (FSII) is an additive to aviation fuels that prevents the formation of ice in fuel lines. FSII is sometimes referred to by the registered, genericized trademark Prist. Jet fuel can contain a small amount of dissolved water that does not appear in droplet form. As an aircraft gains altitude, the temperature drops and ...
