Most fuels such as gasoline, kerosene (jet fuel), gas oil (diesel fuel) and fuel oil have drawbacks which do not allow their long term storage, make difficult transportation and even use. About 20 properties of fuels can be improved, maintained or imparted new beneficial characteristics by the adding of small amounts of certain chemicals named fuel additives. Fuel additives are added in very small concentrations: from several ppm to several thousands ppm.
Market Analysis and Insights: Global Jet Fuel Additives Market
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global Jet Fuel Additives market size is estimated to be worth US$ 811.4 million in 2022 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1086.7 million by 2028 with a CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period 2022-2028. Fully considering the economic change by this health crisis, Icing Inhibitors accounting for % of the Jet Fuel Additives global market in 2021, is projected to value US$ million by 2028, growing at a revised % CAGR from 2022 to 2028. While Passenger and Freighter Aircrafts segment is altered to an % CAGR throughout this forecast period.
Tetra-ethyl lead is added to improve the anti-knock characteristics of Avgas. There are pressures to eliminate this additive on environmental grounds. Antioxidants (gum inhibitors) must be used in Avgas to prevent the formation of gum and other antioxidation products. Jet fuels, which are inherently more stable than gasolines, may contain them, depending on the treatment process used during manufacture. A metal deactivator - now rarely used - may be added to nullify the effects of dissolved trace metals, especially copper, which can impair the thermal stability of jet fuels. Corrosion inhibitors can be used to reduce corrosion in fuel system and improve the lubricity - lubricating properties - of jet fuels. Fuel system icing inhibitors reduce the freezing point of any water that may be in the fuel system and prevent the formation of ice crystals that could restrict fuel flow. They are mandatory in military Jet but are not used in civil aircraft that have fuel heaters. They may be added to either Jet or Avgas during the fuelling of small aircraft.
