(54) Title: BIORENEWABLE KEROSENE, JET FUEL, JET FUEL BLENDSTOCK, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING IN (57) : The present technology provides compositions that include at least about 98 weight percent (\"wt%\") n-paraffms which, 1-1 c:::: , among other surprising features, may be suitable for use as a diesel fuel, an aviation fuel, a jet fuel blendstock, a blendstock to reduce the N cloud point of a diesel fuel, a fuel for portable heaters, and/or as a charcoal lighter fluid. The composition includes at least about 98 wt% ON C 7 -C12 n-paraffins, where at least about 10 wt% of composition includes n-decane, at least about 20 wt% of the composition includes 1-1 ---- n- dodecane, and at least about 75 wt% of the composition includes even carbon number paraffms. The composition also includes IN less about 0.1 wt% oxygenates and less than about 0.1 wt % aromatics. The composition may be produced by a process that includes 1-1 © hydrotreating a biorenewable feedstock comprising at least one of palm kernel oil, coconut oil, babassu oil, microbial oil, or algal oil. ei C
