Abstract
An aircraft fuel system includes a first fuel storage tank arranged to store a first fuel, a second fuel storage tank arranged to store a reduced oxygen fuel, and a fuel tank inerting system arranged to provide a reduced oxygen gas through a fuel contained within the second fuel storage tank to generate the reduced oxygen fuel within the second fuel storage tank. The fuel tank inerting system may include a fuel tank sparging system to inject the reduced oxygen gas directly into the fuel contained within the second fuel storage tank to generate the reduced oxygen fuel.
