Abstract

Methods are provided for producing a jet fuel composition from a feedstock including a natural oil. The methods include reacting the feedstock with a low-weight olefin in the presence of a metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to form a metathesized product. The methods further include hydrogenating the metathesized product under conditions sufficient to form a jet fuel composition.
