I am looking for means or ways to inject some additives to a product that is transported through a pipeline?

The product on the pipeline is Kerosene (JET-A1) which will be converted and stored as JP-8 (Military Aircraft Fuel) by injecting some additives.

The pipeline is 4-inches diameter, working pressure is 100 psi and flow rate is 285 GPM.

Is there a built-in injector that can be installed on the pipeline to covert product form JET-A1 to JP8.

I appreciate any assistance on that regard.

Thanks

Yes, there are several "off the shelf" additive injectors that can be used in piplines. In fact, that is the delivery method of every one I have seen in the Airforce bases in the Pacific. Here is a website of one i found in a google search...

Hope it helps,

Jake
