About Biodiesel

    Biodiesel can be used wherever petro-diesel is now used.  It contains no aromatics or sulfur and offers excellent lubricity to engine pumps and injectors which petro-based products do not. It can also be blended with petro-diesel. Biodiesel is biodegradable and reduces our air pollutants (carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons). According to the national biodiesel board, biodiesel is 1/10th as toxic as table salt and it biodegrades as fast as sugar. Particulates released can be 95% less than those released by petro-diesel.  It is a safe and renewable resource fuel.  Biodiesel is a cleaner burning fuel that can be made from domestic renewable resources such as soybean oil. Soybean farmers have invested millions of checkoff dollars in the research and development of biodiesel.  The alternative fuel can be used in its pure form or blended with petroleum diesel at any level.  
    Biodiesel can be used by anyone with an oil furnace or hot water heater or anyone with a diesel car, truck, tractor, generator, or other diesel engine. Trucking fleets may find biodiesel an easy way to comply with clean air laws. Power companies can use biodiesel to make electricity.  Biodiesel can be used anywhere that petro-diesel is now used without any modifications to the engine in most cases. Biodiesel can also be pumped easily from the gas station on the corner.  None of the delivery infrastructure needs to be changed as biofuels can be delivered to the public in the same way that petro products are delivered today. Biodiesel significantly reduces emission such as carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons and virtually free of sulfur and aromatics. Biodiesel offers smilar fuel economy, horsepower and torque to petroleum diesel while providing superior lubricity.  Today, it is the fastest growing alternative fuel in America, and about 400 major fleets use biodiesel nationwide.  Approximately 300 retail filling stations make various biodiesel blends available to the public , and more than 1,000 petroleum distributors carry it nationwide.We estimate that renewable fuels could in a short amount of time cut our dependence on imported petroleum oil products.  All the while, we would also be creating thousands of jobs, helping farmers by creating a greater demand for oil barring crops, and cutting the emission of greenhouse gases drastically. Biodiesel cleans the deposits left behind by petroleum products. Therefore, we recommend a gradual transition to biodiesel to avoid a potential blockage of your fuel line by the deposits.
