Abstract: This paper provides a review of progress in catalytic conversion of JP-8 fuel and its surrogates made over the last decade. The effect of different types of catalyst and support materials, as well as different preparation methods, is discussed in detail. The derivation of kinetic models for computational studies is also examined. Particular attention is given to the development of sulfur tolerant catalysts and the mechanisms by which catalyst poisoning occurs, as this is an important obstacle to overcome for systems using sulfur-laden fuel. Suggestions for further research are offered.
