An overview of synthetic renewable jet fuel.

1. Ramin Abhari, P.E. Senior Process Engineer Syntroleum Corporation SYNTHETIC PARAFFINICjet fuel

2. A bright spot in recent alternative fuel news…

3. A-10 Thunderbolt synthetic fuel flight; March 25, 2010

4. F/A-18 synthetic fuel flight; April 28, 2010

5. C-17 synthetic fuel flight; Oct. 22, 2007

6. B-52 synthetic fuel flight; Sept. 26, 2006

7. What’s up with all the synthetic fuel flight tests?

8. DoD intends to catalyze commercial industry to produce clean fuels for the military from secure domestic resources using environmentally sensitive process as a bridge to the future - Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007

9. By 2016, 50% of all fuel for the continental U.S. fleet will be purchased domestically from alternate sources - Air Force Policy Document 90-17

10. What is synthetic jet fuel…and how is it made?

11. Same components as petroleum jet fuel… Petro Synthetics ”The good, the bad, and the ugly!” …except for the “bad” and the “ugly”

12. Two ways to synthetic paraffinic jet fuel

13. 1. Low Temperature Fischer-Tropsch

14. 2. Hydroprocessing of Fats and Oils

15. Same fuel from both processes Hydro-processed Renewable Jet (HRJ or Bio-SPK) Fischer Tropsch (FT or SPK)

16. Feedstock Process Synthetic Jet Fuel How does synthetic jet fuel perform?

17. Three key performance advantages

18. 2. Lower Emissions 1. Lower Emissions

19. Synthetic 2. Better Low Temperature Performance

20. 3. Less carbon deposit in fuel system

21. Dynamic Fuels Renewable Synthetic Fuels Plant (Geismar, LA) starting up in 2010

22. Summary Strong interest by military and commercial purchasers Superior fuel properties Two processes, abundant feedstocks First domestic plant starting up in 2010
