Constraints on Jp-900 Jet Fuel Production Concepts

Recent work on alternative methods of producing jet fuel for military applications has included coprocessing coal or coal-derived products with low-value liquid intermediates and co-coking, which uses a mixture of solid coal and decant oil. But the limited availability of coal tar and decant oil and limited marketability, as high value products, of the coke coproducts will severely constrain jet fuel production from these process concepts.
