Exploring Gasification: An Emerging Pathway for Renewables

Refiners have experienced an influx of hydrotreated triglyceride facilities coming online, and more are expected to become operational in the next couple of years. The ability to convert triglycerides and fatty acids to renewable diesel and renewable jet fuels through a hydrodeoxygenation process similar to hydrotreating has been widely recognized and accepted as a method to reduce the carbon intensity of transportation fuels and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, the main limitation to producing hydrotreated triglyceride product is sustainably sourcing the necessary feedstock quantities.
