A METHOD FOR PRODUCING A JET FUEL HAVING A LUMINOMETER NUMBER OF AT LEAST ABOUT 150 FROM A HYDROCARBON FRACTION BOILING IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT C5 HYDROCARBONS UP TO ABOUT 450*F. WHICH COMPRISES SEPARATING SAID HYDROCARBON FRACTION AT ABOUT ITS 250*F. BOILING POINT INTO A LOWER BOILING FRACTION AND A HIGHER BOILING FRACTION, SEPARATELY REFORMING SAID LOWER BOILING FRACTION IN THE PRESENCE OF PARTICLE-FORM SOLID PLATINUM-GROUP METAL REFORMING CATALYST AT A LIQUID HOURLY SPACE VELOCITY BELOW ABOUT 5, SEPARATELY REFORMING SAID HIGHER BOILING FRACTION IN THE PRESENCE OF PARTICLE-FORM SOLID PLATINUMGROUP METAL REFORMING CATALYST AT A LIQUID HOURLY SPACE VELOCITY SUBSTANTIALLY ABOVE ABOUT 5, RECOVERING A REFORMATE PRODUCT BOILING ABOVE ABOUT C5 HYDROCARBONS FROM EACH OF SAID SEPARATE REFORMING STEPS, SEPARATING THE THUS RECOVERED REFORMATE PRODUCS INTO PARAFFINIC AND NON-PARAFFINIC HYDROCARBONS, AND COMBINING THE SEPARATED PARAFFINIC HYDROCARBONS OBTAINED FROM SAID REFORMATE PRODUCTS TO PRODUCE A JET FUEL HAVING A LUMINOMETER NUMBER OF AT LEAST ABOUT 150.
