UOP LLC, a Honeywell company, announced that Honeywell Green Jet Fuel™, produced using process technology from Honeywell’s UOP, is powering Aeroméxico’s Mexico City to San José, Costa Rica route, marking one of the first uses of renewable fuels in everyday airplane passenger service.

Honeywell’s UOP process technology produces Green Jet Fuel from natural oils and wastes.  The fuel meets all specifications for flight and, when used in a 50-50 blend with petroleum-derived jet fuel, is a drop-in replacement that requires no changes to the aircraft or engine.

Aeroméxico has begun use of Green Jet Fuel made by Honeywell’s UOP on its regular Mexico City to Costa Rica route as part of its “Green Flights” project designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Aeroméxico-operated Boeing 737-700, which carries up to 124 passengers, will use a 15 percent blend of Green Jet Fuel made from the inedible plant camelina and petroleum-based fuel.

UOP LLC, a Honeywell company, announced that Green Jet Fuel, produced jointly with PetroChina, powered China’s first biofuel demonstration flight.

The Air China demonstration flight, which took off and landed in Beijing, used a 50 percent blend of petroleum-based fuel and Green Jet Fuel made from the inedible plant jatropha in one engine of a Boeing 747-400 aircraft. The jatropha used to produce the fuel was grown on PetroChina’s jatropha plantation cooperation base in southwest China.

Honeywell’s UOP process technology produces Honeywell Green Jet Fuel™ from natural oils and wastes such as jatropha, camelina, and algae. The fuel meets all specifications for flight and, when used up to a 50 percent blend with petroleum-derived jet fuel, is a drop-in replacement that requires no changes to the aircraft or engine. 

To date, more than 700,000 gallons of Honeywell Green Jet Fuel have been produced for use in more than 20 test and commercial flights on military and commercial platforms. In each flight, the biofuel performed as well, if not better, than traditional petroleum-based fuels.

Mark Howes, President of Honeywell Aerospace’s Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, won the “Leadership Excellence Award” at the China Aerospace Laureate Awards Ceremony held at Aviation Expo 2011 in Beijing. The awards are organized by the China Aviation Media Group, China Aviation News, and Aviation Week. 

Introduced in 2005, the China Aerospace Laureate Awards are considered China’s highest honor for aviation and aerospace, recognizing organizations and individuals who have made significant contributions to the industry. The awards are supported by various institutions including the government, military, enterprises, as well as the Change Foundation and Laureate Foundation.

Howes is the first non-Chinese citizen to receive the prestigious China Aerospace Laureate Award in its seven-year history. Howes’ strategic vision and firm understanding of China’s aviation industry as well as his emphasis on the need for comprehensive and cooperative partnership have resulted in Honeywell’s strong market performance, localization, and leadership in China, according to the organizers.

Howes joined Honeywell in 1980 and has led different business segments within the company.  In 2007, he was named President of Honeywell Aerospace’s APAC region.
