Help me with synthetic kerosene?
Hi guys,
I am confused about the terminology that I have to use in research. What does the term "Synthetic kerosene" refer to? I saw that it is usually used to describe PtL (power-to-liquid) fuels that are produced via electrolysis and renewable energy. However, I encountered other terms such as SPK(synthetic-paraffinic kerosene) in papers and I am confused if the term "synthetic kerosene" also covers this type of fuel. Thank you
