What is bionaphtha?

Bionaphtha is a by-product of HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and SAF (sustainable aviation fuel) production. It can be used in the petrochemicals sector to produce renewable plastics or can be blended with gasoline. When producing HVO, the yield of bionaphtha can be up to 10pc (though often it’s lower) while this share grows when producing SAF. While availability is currently limited, production is set to grow in line with rising capacity for HVO and SAF.
