  3. Bio jet fuel initiative in Mexico • Mexico’s aviation industry has made a Flight Plan program ”Plan de vuelo” started in july 2010 in which all the aviation industry actors, investigators, feedstock producers and Mexican government representatives • The program is to promote the collaboration of all the involved parties and to come up up with a national biorefinary plan in Mexico • 1st demostration flight in Mexico based on jatropha bio jet fuel was made on 1st of April, 2011 • UOP Honeywell is involved in the project and the demostration flight was made with UOP technology (www.uop.com) • Sources for the bio jet fuel are: jatropha, camelina, algae, cactus among others

  4. Demostration flight process 1) Feedstock: • ThejatrophaseedcamefromMexicanproducers: Government of Chipas (90%), Global Energías Renovables (Yucatán), Energy J.H., (Michoacán) and Bencafser (Puebla), 2) Processforgeneratingbiofuels: • PureBio-Keroseno Parafínico Sintético (BioKPS) waselaboratedfromthejatrophaseeds . 3) Extraction and refination: • Theoilwasextracted and pre-refined in Guadalajara and transferredto a biorefinary in Pasadena, Texas, whereitwasprocessedunderthesupervision of UnitedOilProducts (UOP), of Honeywell. 4) Transfer • TheBioKPSwastransferredtothe fuel station in Mexico City, wherethe mixture of 73 % jet fuel (fossile) and 27 % BioKPSwascreated. The mixture wasmadewithstrictcuality and securitycontrols
