Aviation Fuel JET A-1

Jet fuel or aviation turbine fuel (ATF, also known as A-1) is
a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft
powered by gas-turbine engines. It is colorless to strawcolored in appearance. The most commonly used fuels
for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are
produced to a standardized international specification.
The only other jet fuel commonly used in civilian turbineengine powered aviation is Jet B, which is used for its
enhanced cold-weather performance.

Jet fuel is a mixture of a variety of hydrocarbons. Because the exact composition of jet fuel varies widely based on petroleum source, it is impossible to define jet fuel as a ratio of specific hydrocarbons.
Jet fuel is therefore defined as a performance specification rather than a chemical compound. Furthermore, the range of molecular mass between hydrocarbons (or different carbon numbers) is defined by the requirements for the product, such as the freezing point or smoke point. Kerosene-type jet fuel (including Jet A and Jet A-1, JP-5, and JP-8) has a carbon number distribution between about 8 and 16 (carbon atoms per molecule); wide-cut or naphtha-type jet fuel (including Jet B and JP-4), between about 5 and 15.

The oil and gas industry is the  biggest sector in the world, employing hundreds of thousands of  workers and generating hundreds of trillion of dollars globally each year.
