2 Honeywell Corporate Overview 125,000 employees in more than 100 countries Transportation & Power Systems A Fortune 100 company sales of $34.5 billion in 2008 Specialty Materials Aerospace Global leader in advanced technology products, services and solutions UOP 15% 15% 34% 36% Automation & Control Technology Company, Financially Strong and Global UOP

3 UOP Overview Leading supplier and licensor of processing technology, catalysts, adsorbents, process plants, and technical services to the petroleum refining, petrochemical, and gas processing industries for over 90 years UOP Technology Furnishes: 60% of the world s gasoline; 70% of the world s modern detergents; 60% of the world s para-xylene ~3000 employees worldwide 08 Financials: ~$2 billion sales; Strong relationships with leading refining and petrochemical customers worldwide 70+ processes in 6,000+ units in hydrocarbon processing industry; 300+ catalysts, adsorbents; 31 of 36 refining technologies in use today created by UOP Track Record of Technology Innovation 2003 National Medal of Technology Recipient UOP

4 Honeywell Fuel Started under DARPA contract to develop process technology to produce military jet fuel from renewable sources Leverages UOP s diesel Ecofining TM process technology Fuel meets stringent requirements for flight Military has ordered up to 600,000 gallons for testing Extended to commercial aviation in partnership with Boeing DARPA Project Partners Demonstration Flights UOP

5 UOP s Renewable & Diesel Process Feedstocks Rapeseed Tallow Jatropha Soybean Algal Oils Palm Oil Camelina Greases Deoxygenation CO 2 Water Selective Hydrocracking Product Separation Hydrogen Light Fuels SPK ( ) Diesel Feedstock flexible Costs Capex; similar to typical refinery process unit Opex; SPK cost subject to feedstock cost, but can be competitive with A-1 High quality green hydrocarbon products Commercial scale proven technology UOP 5363A-13

6 Renewables Drivers / Challenges Drivers Global energy demand growing at >2% per year and diversity of supply is critical Government mandates in some regions Global concerns over sustainability and greenhouse gas emissions Challenges Concerns over first generation feedstocks -- food vs. fuel, deforestation Need to develop larger-scale second-generation feedstocks Inedible Oils: Camelina, Jatropha First Generation Second Generation Natural oils (vegetables, greases) Lignocellulosic biomass, algal oils UOP

7 Alternative Biofuel Crops Pongamia Castor Lesquerella Oiticia Euphorbia Crambe One crop does not fit every location, but there is at least one crop for every location Crop Oil Year (gal/acre/year) Cultivation (M Acres) Advantages as Oil Crop Pongamia 500 Not characterized Leguminous plant that does not require nitrogen fertilizer. Integrates well with other land usage such as grazing. Oiticia (Licania) Widely cultivated in Brazil for biodiesel. More saturated fatty acids than many other natural oils. Euphorbia (gopher sponge) Produces oil both in seed and as latex in leaves & stem, nonedible, toxic Castor Bean No-edible oil due to toxins, oil mainly used for industrial purposes. Non-edible Lesquerella Grows naturally in arid and semi-arid landscapes and is native to areas in the southwest United States and Mexico. Similar oil to castor but no toxins. Low maintenance crop. Non-edible Crambe High C 22 content in oil. Non-edible UOP

8 Algae: Multiple Sources for Fuels Wild Algae (natural lakes sewage ponds) Low Production Costs High Pre-Treatment Costs Enhanced Algae Strains (open ponds photo-bioreactors) Moderate Production Cost Moderate Pre-Treatment Costs Renewable Unit Heterotrophically Grown Algae (Bio Reactors) Moderate to High Production Costs Low Pre-Treatment Costs & Diesel Variety of Algal Oils successfully tested by UOP UOP

9 Key Properties of UOP Description A-1 Specs Jatropha Derived SPK Camelina Derived SPK Jatropha/ Algae Derived SPK Flash Point, o C Min Freezing Point, o C Max JFTOT@300 o C Filter dp, mmhg max Tube Deposit Less Than < <1 1.0 Net heat of combustion, MJ/kg min Viscosity, -20 deg C, mm 2 /sec max Sulfur, ppm max 3000 <0.0 <0.0 <0.0 Over 6000 US Gallons of bio-spk made Production Viability Demonstrated Fuel Samples from Different Sources Meet Key Properties UOP
