Honeywell has unveiled a new Biocrude Upgrading tech that turns agricultural and forestry waste into low-carbon fuels for hard-to-decarbonize sectors. (Renewables Now)
The tech: Biomass like wood chips and crop residues can be processed into biocrude at collection sites, then refined into marine fuel, gas, or SAF at larger facilities. The system can be delivered as a modular, prefab plant to reduce deployment time and cost.
Why it matters: Renewable fuel producers have long struggled with feedstock logistics and high costs. Honeywell says its process lowers both by using local waste sources and cutting production expenses.
