ISFuel Inc. (Integrated Synthetic Fuel Incorporated) is a United States company involved in research & development of synfuels. In particular, they research the use of coal and biomass to produce a fully synthetic fuel that can pass multiple fuel specifications, or “joint” fuel.[1][2]
Affiliations
In 2010 ISFuel Inc. became a member of Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative (CAFFI)[3] and ASTM International[4]
Fuel Types
ISFuel Incorporated is currently researching & developing synthetic fuel formulas in which one fuel can pass multiple fuel specifications.[5][6]
- JS-1 (Joint Synthetic One): A first generation synthetic fuel that incorporates commercial jet fuel (Jet A & Jet A-1), JP-8 (JP-8+100), & Diesel (No.1 & No.2) into one formulated low sulfur fuel.
- JS-2 (Joint Synthetic Two): A second generation synthetic fuel that incorporated all of the fuels of JS-1 with meeting the additional specification requirements for JP-5, JP-7 and RP-1 (including RP-2) fuel types.
Patents
April 26, 2012 a patent application was published for JS-1 fuel. [7] June 11, 2014 the patent for JS-1 fuel was awarded. [8]
