Abstract
- The Defense Department, government and industry are awakening to the possibilities of synthetic fuels and other alternatives as the price of petroleum-derived propellant has climbed to an unprecedented $77 a barrel in 2006. An Air Force fuels specialist is optimistic that a shift to synthetic fuels is gaining acceptance and alternative fuels could also be produced from ethanol, hydrogen and bio fuels as long as they are certified for use.
