Renewable Fuels Milestone: 50 Facilities to Power the Future of Fuels
How can waste oil from french fries be used to make fuel that can power a plane?
That’s one of the big questions Honeywell teams answered by developing and bringing to market a process for producing sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in 2007. Known as Ecofining, the process produces renewable diesel and SAF utilizing widely available materials like waste fats, oils and greases. Blended with conventional jet fuel, the use of SAF can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by up to 80% compared to conventional fossil fuels.1
