      abstract = {Alternative jet fuel has been an active area of research  and development since the 1973 oil embargo. Research goals  have included establishing energy security, lowering fuel  costs, and reducing emissions with a focus on developing  cost-effective methodologies for processing and sustaining  jet fuel production from shale, tar sands, coal, biomass,  end use waste, and CO2. Physical and chemical properties,  such as the viscosity, vapor pressure, boiling range,  freeze point and hydrogen content, have been measured for  many potential alternative jet fuels. Combustion  characteristics, such as lean blow-out and ignition, have  also been investigated in gas turbine engines and  fundamental combustion devices. The compilation of this  research has resulted in a large technical base for  understanding the combustion of alternative jet fuels that  have a wide range of physical and chemical properties and  operating in different combustion devices.},
