Can conventional jet fuel be used directly as an aviation fuel product without hydrogenation?
Sure, aren’t the regular first-tier facilities those that produce aviation fuel?
As long as the crude oil is of good quality, there are dedicated pipelines that allow for the direct production of jet fuel products through simple refining.
This depends on the properties of your oil and the design parameters of the tower; generally, crude oil from the first distillation stage cannot be used as aviation fuel. If this approach is considered during the design phase, it is better to have control at the front line; moreover, the conditions can only be met if the properties of the crude oil are relatively stable.
