Commercial aviation faces fuel cost, environmental, and energy security challenges that arise from petroleum based jet fuel use. Sustainable alternative jet fuels can help to address these challenges. Aviation Fuels provides up-to-date data on fuel effects on combustion performance and use of alternative fuels in aircraft. This book covers the latest advances on aviation fuel technologies including alternative fuels, feedstocks and manufacturing processes, combustion performance, chemical modelling, and the technical, environmental, economic and political challenges for implementing the use of alternative fuels for aviation.

Aviation fuel and combustion researchers, academics, and program managers for aviation technologies will value this comprehensive overview and summary on the present status of aviation fuels.

Presents an overview on all relevant fields of aviation fuels including production, approval, and combustion including emissions
Discusses environmental impacts and carbon footprint of alternative fuels
Features a chapter on electric flight and how its implementation will impact the aviation industry

Industry Reviews

"The current scenario of fuels suited to the propulsion of civil and military aircraft is covered in this book, encompassing the production, official approval, ignition, emissions, combustion chamber design, flame stability, impact on containing materials, and thermal stability.... Summarising, in the context of aircraft propulsion, this valuable book provides a deeper insight into the present, enabling better tackling of the future." --AERSOPACE Magazine (Royal Aeronautical Society)
