“…Aviation Gasoline (AVGAS) standards are a fundamental part of the safety of piston-engine aircraft. Approximately 230,000 aircraft worldwide rely on the AVGAS 100 low-lead (100LL) in their operations [28]. Avgas, with grades 100 and 100LL, has an octane rating of 100 and is the most widely used.…”

“…In 1982, an experiment was carried out to fly a Cessna 150-type aircraft to reduce the use of Avgas fuel [23]. Then, in order to continue the search for unleaded avgas fuel, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) appointed the Piston Aircraft Fuel Initiative (PAFI) as an organization that focuses on finding alternative aircraft fuels without the use of lead as an additive which is currently used in 100 LL Avgas [24]. Meanwhile, for its application in aviation, the FAA permits piston engine aircraft users to use mogas as a mixture of avgas fuel but must first go through approval of the supplement type certificate (STC) issued by the FAA [25] It is done solely to reduce the use of lead in 100 LL avgas fuel.…”

“…1 For B-92 grade, the standard for the indicator "performance number" is not less than 100; it is determined at the stage of production preparation and is guaranteed by the production technology. 2 Aviation gasoline with a MON of at least 99.5 and a performance number of at least 130 may contain blue dye. 3 Determined only when an antistatic additive is used.…”

“…To ensure reliable, uninterrupted engine operation, aviation gasoline must have high chemical and phase stability, optimum vaporizability, high detonation resistance, and compatibility with fuel system materials [1]. Aviation gasoline is distinct from automotive gasoline due to its enhanced antiknock properties, which are traditionally achieved using tetraethyl lead (TEL) [2]. For jet fuel, the structural characteristics of a turbojet engine require the fuel to have a high energy density, high temperature oxidation stability, and high combustion efficiency.…”

“…Kumar et al (2018) conducted a review of leaded aviation gasoline and detailed described some formed aviation fuels, tested on aircraft under control the authority (FAA and ESA) such as MOGAS, 82UL, Hjelmco Oil 91/96, Swift fuels 100, G100Ul and AGE 85. Also, Thanikasalam et al (2018aThanikasalam et al ( , 2018b) conducted a review on emissions of piston-engine aircraft using avgas as fuel and mogas as fuel. The basic life cycle of lead (cradle to grave) is important to determine environmental effects.…”
