Abstract
The work is devoted to the investigation of low-temperature properties of alternative
jet fuels mixed with bio-additives derived from rapeseed oil, methanol and ethanol. For this
work, a modification of conventional jet fuel from rapeseed oil, methanol and ethanol was chosen
to develop alternative jet fuels. The main low-temperature characteristics – freezing point and
pour point of conventional jet fuel and three types of bio-additives were identified and compared
with the requirements for conventional Jet A-1 fuel. The influence of bio-additives from rapeseed
oil, methanol and ethanol on low-temperature characteristics of new jet fuels has been studied
and explained. The necessity of studying new technologies is grounded.
