GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) - University of North Dakota researchers say a new jet fuel they have developed from crop oils is almost ready for testing by the Air Force.
Ted Aulich, a senior researcher at the Energy and Environmental Research Center, said the new fuel is cheaper and more environmentally friendly than the leading conventional jet fuel.
He said the military is interested in the fuel because it could help reduce dependence on foreign oil.
