Combustion Tests using a Single Combustor Model and a Jet Engine of Bio-Derived Aviation Fuel Produced through Integrated Process of Woody Biomass Gasification and Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis

摘要

In 2017, Mitsubishi Power with partners (Toyo Engineering Corporation (Toyo), JERA and JAXA (the Gasification-FT project team, hereafter) have started a project to conduct a pilot-scaled plant testing for a Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (FT-SPK) fuel production derived from lignocellulosic biomass supported by NEDO. This paper presents the status of developmental study on an integrated process for the production of aviation fuel by the Gasification-FT project team and progress on combustion tests are described.
