Introduction
Biodiesel can be operated in any diesel engine with little
or no impact to the fuel system.
Biodiesel has a solvent effect which may release deposits
accumulated on tank walls and pipes from previous diesel
fuel storage.
The release of deposits may clog filters.
Biodiesel can be used as a pure fuel or blended with
petroleum in any ratio.
What is Biodiesel?
Alternative fuel for diesel engines
Made from vegetable oil or animal fat
Meets health effect testing (CAA)
Lower emissions, High flash point (>300F), Safer
Biodegradable, Essentially non-toxic.
Chemically, biodiesel molecules are mono-alkyl esters
produced usually from triglyceride esters
