JBEI researchers produce high density jet fuel precursors from bacteria

Green Car Congress

-isocomene—as novel jet fuel precursors. The researchers performed a computational analysis to calculate the energy of combustion of these sesquiterpenes and found that their specific energies are comparable to commercial jet fuel A-1. Through bioengineering, they produced 727.9 mg/L epi-isozizaene, 780.3 cedrene, and ?-cedrene,
