The ecofining process involves several key steps: 1. Feedstock Pretreatment: Removal of impurities such as phospholipids, metals, and water. 2. Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO): Using catalysts to remove oxygen from the feedstock, converting it into paraffins, which are vital components of diesel. 3. Isomerization: Enhancing the cold flow properties of the diesel by rearranging the molecular structure of the paraffins. 4. Hydrocracking: Breaking down larger molecules into smaller, more valuable products such as naphtha and jet fuel.
