GEA Pre2Fuel - The better HVO pretreatment
HVOs (hydrated vegetable oils) and SAFs (sustainable aviation fuels) are direct fuel substitutes made from oils and fats of vegetable or animal origin. Via hydrocracking, the original raw materials are transformed into hydrocarbons which can be blended to i.e. conventional diesel or kerosene to reduce GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions. With the new GEA Pre2Fuel pretreatment process producers can save up to 50 percent OPEX and 12 percent CO2eq emissions compared to conventional pretreatment.
