Honeywell Tests 50% Renewable Jet Fuel Blend on TPE331 Engines; Comparable Performance to Conventional Fuels, 15-50% Lower Emissions 
Green Car Congress | by Mike Millikin | Thu, Oct 22
Green Car Congress is the #1 Blogger for Renewable energy
Test results indicate biofuel blends can be used safely for aviation, including business aircraft powered by Honeywell engines and APUs, with no effect on engine performance or operation. Biofuels can lower life cycle carbon dioxide emissions relative to conventional petroleum der...
