| Detailed Product Description: |
Biodiesel is a natural and renewable domestic fuel alternative for diesel engines & diesel motors, biodiesel is made from vegetable oils, mostly soy, palm & corn. It contains no petroleum, is nontoxic and biodegradable.
Biodiesel burns clean, which results in a significant reduction of the types of pollutants that contribute to smog & global warming & emits up to 85% fewer cancer-causing agents. It is the only alternate fuel approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), has passed Health-Effects Test of the Clean Air Act & meets the requirements of the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
Biodiesel is made using an alcohol like methanol & a chemical process that separates glycerin & methyl esters (biodiesel) from fats or vegetable oils. Glycerin is used in many common products including soap & is highly marketable; therefore there is little waste in the process. That said, growing crops requires time & significant investment, and the fuel must be made & shipped to a local station. For these reasons, biodiesel is more expensive than petroleum, gallon for gallon. This must be considered against the many economic advantages, however, that arise from a domestic from of fuel, a cleaner environment, an improvement in air quality, and a reduction of cancer-causing agents.
A ?bootleg? from of biodiesel can be made from discarded cooking oils as collected from restaurants. The cooking oil must be put trough a process before it can be used as fuel, but home-brewed biodiesel is not a legal form of the fuel as it isn?t subject to standards. Biodiesel can be use in mane diesel engines & motors with few to no modifications. The main effect is super-lubrication which has the benefit of acting like a solvent to clean the engine. If the engine has been previously running on conventional diesel, this can result in an initial need to change fuel filters until sludge left by petroleum fuel is purged. This effect is more pronounced when using B 100 (100% BIODIESEL), and may be less so with B 20. Precautionary measures should be taken however, by checking the fuel filter after initial hours of running blended or neat fuel (100% BIODIESEL). |
