Using catalysts and heat, hydroprocessing removes oxygen, adds hydrogen and rearranges carbon molecules to create a drop-in petroleum substitute that requires no engine modifications in a 50% blend. Hydroprocessing produces renewable diesel, and can produce 50-70% jet fuel with an additional cracking step. renewable diesel.
