Ethanol to Jetfuels¤

Introduction¤

Ethanol to Jetfuel are biochemical processes to convert ethanol to hydrocarbons for transport applications. Ethanol is dehydrated catalytically to ethylene that is pressurized before entering the oligomerization reactor. The resulting olefins are fractionated to light hydrocarbons in car gasoline, diesel and jet-range fuels by product fractionation.
