Often called “green diesel” or “second generation diesel,” refers to petrodiesel-like fuels derived from biological sources that are chemically not esters and thus distinct from biodiesel. Renewable diesel is chemically the same as petrodiesel, but it is made of recently living biomass. The term ‘renewable diesel’ means fuel derived from biomass (as defined in section 45K(c)(3)) using a thermal depolymerization process which meets- (A) the registration requirements for fuels and fuel additives established by the Environmental Protection Agency under section 211 of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7545), and (B) the requirements of the American Society of Testing and Materials D975 or D396. The IRS’s ruling refers to any biomass process using heat as “thermal depolymerization” and the processed fuel is eligible for the $1-per-gallon blender’s tax credit. Renewable diesel blends follow the same nomenclature as biodiesel. Renewable diesel in its pure form is designated R100 while a blend comprised of 20% renewable diesel and 80% petrodiesel is called R20. Because renewable diesel is chemically the same as petrodiesel, it can be mixed with petrodiesel in any proportion but users may need to add an additive to address lubricity issue associated with compounds with no oxygen.
 
Who makes renewable diesel in the US?


Valero and Darling continue to pursue growth in the low-carbon renewable diesel business, and have approved a new 470 million gallons per year renewable diesel plant near Valero's Port Arthur, Texas refinery.

Neste supplies renewable diesel to commercial fleets in California.
Phillips66, Global Clean Energy, and Marathon Oil all plan to convert their California petroleum refineries to producing renewable diesel from plant oils and animal fats.

Prices for petroleum-derived fuels have been squashed by the economic impact of the novel coronavirus. In contrast, producers of renewable fuels expect to profit, thanks to significant subsidies for climate-friendly transportation fuels.

The renewables shift could create stiff competition for limited stocks of cheap oils and fats, according to the energy consultancy Stratas Advisors. Any price increases would also impact the soap and detergent industry, which relies on animal fats as raw materials for products such as cationic surfactants. The American Cleaning Institute, a trade group, has pressed for biofuel mandates to exclude animal fats as a feedstock option but has not been successful.

Phillips66 plans to use fats and greases, along with used cooking oil and soybean oil, at its San Francisco Refinery in Rodeo. The firm says it will produce 19 million barrels (bbl) per year of renewable diesel, gasoline, and aviation fuel starting in 2024.<-------
 
Stoney would you quit patting yourself on the back, you do this everyday and the first time you get one right... here it comes.

The S&P is at a 52 week low at 1:30PM today... on Friday Opex... and it bounce 60 points into the close on short covering. You weren't the only one who saw that coming, trust me.
You also said the other day we were going to 4200 when SPX closed at 4080ish.
3900 is a long ways away. For every ying there exists a yang. Your memory is extremely selective.

I'm just saying... knock that stuff off Stoney, it's silly and chases away (and annoys) knowledgeable traders. Keep the savant boasting between you and I. We can joke, but I boast to YOU and you only, just to get under your skin because you know I'm way better :cool:, but for real, no one wants to read that.
Stoney is having fun
Ford should jump back to January highs in short order, Tigress Financial says-- Who is the Tigress? She sounds sexy.
? Input costs are still crazy, $25 was courtesy of Reddit and WSB. I was wearing a funny WS Bets T to the gym and so many kids asked “You YOLOing Ford”

Stoney, their wealth was wiped(F fuel) off like the poor rich Melvin investor gains. .The kids I worry about, not Melvin elites. No buying power.
 
Going downtown to see if Mazda air con is fixed it's about 100 already...

I turned the boiler off. Don't usually do that this early...
