Renewable diesel pathways for refiners: a practical biofuel refining roadmap

Explore how refiners can produce renewable diesel, adapt to evolving regulatory mandates, and move forward with a flexible approach to biofuel refining.

Refiners are under pressure to meet renewable fuels requirements while maintaining profitability. In many cases, the challenge is determining how to move forward without taking on unnecessary risk or capital burden.

With multiple biofuel technology pathways available, choosing the right approach for your refinery is critical.

This white paper outlines a phased approach to renewable fuels production, helping you identify practical pathways based on your refinery’s configuration, feedstocks, and business priorities.

  • Low-capex entry points using refinery co-processing of renewable feedstocks
  • Scalable pathways toward hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) units
  • Strategies to improve margins while meeting regulatory requirements
  • Flexible approaches that support long-term growth

A roadmap for your refinery

There is no one-size-fits-all solution. The right approach depends on your assets, market conditions, and long-term goals.

The white paper explores multiple biofuel technology pathways, helping you evaluate options, avoid costly missteps, and define a strategy.
