| Abstract | When the Swedish Air Force changed fuel from Jet B to Jet A-1 during 1991-1992, a working environmental problem was reported from the military air force bases. The symptoms were unpleasant odor, headache and indisposition. This problem arose from some batches of the new fuel, Jet A-1. In order to investigate the compounds in the fuel which gave rise to this problem a chromatographic sniffing technique (sensory analysis) was used. The identification of the compounds from the sniffing analysis was done with a atomic emission detector for gas chromatography. The problem stemmed from relatively volatile sulfur-organic compounds. An interesting question is if these compounds also are strongly involved in the fuel system deposit formation. This presentation shows this new analysis technique and the complex pattern of sulfur-organic compounds related to fuels from different refinery processes. |
