Biofuel production is expanding worldwide due to commitments to greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction as well as government mandates and incentives.  Over the last decade Honeywell UOP has developed and licensed processes for the conversion of vegetable oils and greases to Green Diesel and Green Jet Fuel that are fully interchangeable with existing fossil fuels.  The initial discoveries leading to these technologies were carried out in the UOP R&D EZ-POP laboratory under the supervision of Dave Mackowiak.  This presentation will summarize the early work that established these processes, as well as the development pathway that has led to their successful commercialization.
