Abstract
The invention concerns a jet engine fuel having the following characteristics: PA1 i) distilling range from 140 to 300.degree. C.; PA1 ii) cis-decalin/trans-decalin ratio greater than 0.2; PA1 iii) aromatics content less than 22% by volume; PA1 iv) sulfur content less than 100 ppm, and PA1 v) lower heating value per unit volume greater than 34.65 Mj/liter. Also process for making the same wherein for example a cut from catalytic cracking distilling between 140 and 300.degree.0 C. is subjected to a hydrotreatment step and then to a dearomatization step.
