The United States depends heavily on imported oil to fuel its transportation infrastructure. The use of alternative fuel derived from plant oils was examined by researchers in the mid-1970s to determine if internal combustion engines could be fueled from sources other than petroleum. (more…)

Two factors have contributed to an aggressive expansion of the European biodiesel industry. Reform of the Common Agricultural Policy to reduce agricultural surpluses was of primary importance. This policy, which provides a substantial subsidy to non-food crop production, stimulated the use of land for non-food purposes. Secondarily, high fuel taxes in European countries normally constitute 50% or more of the retail price of diesel fuel. (more…)

Biodiesel is an ester that can be made from substances such as vegetable oils and animal fats. Biodiesel can either be used in its pure state or blended with conventional diesel fuel derived from petroleum. Vegetable oil was used as a diesel fuel as early as 1900, when Rudolf Diesel demonstrated that a diesel engine could run on peanut oil. (more…)

For every 100 units of biodiesel fuel produced using this method, there are 11 units of glycerin as a by-product. Glycerin is used in such products as hand creams, toothpaste, and lubricants. Another biodiesel production process in limited use involves cold-pressed rapeseed oil, but no glycerin by-product is produced. Alternatively, unprocessed vegetable oils can be used in modified diesel engines. Such engines have limited production and are therefore more expensive, although their numbers are increasing in Europe. (more…)

In 1998, several initiatives were implemented in Brazil, aiming to introduce biodiesel into the Brazilian energy matrix. The initiatives included (1) tests performed in South Brazil, using the so-called B20 blend (20% ester and 80% diesel oil), in specific fleets of urban buses, (2) the building of a small-scale pilot plant for biodiesel production from fat and palm oil (largely produced in North Brazil), and (3) laboratory-scale production and tests of biodiesel using soybean oil/sugarcane ethanol.

Biodiesel is diesel fuel made from renewable sources of carbon such as used vegetable oil or animal fats used in cooking. In diesel engines it can be used as a direct substitute for petrodiesel fuel made from petroleum.
Biodiesel is clear amber liquid. Its consistency is similar to that of petrodiesel. Biodiesel fuel can be used on its own in a diesel engine or mixed with petrodiesel. Some people mix small amounts of biodiesel into gasoline (gasoline additive) to decrease its air-pollution qualities. (more…)

Biodiesel has many benefits. It is very easy to substitute for petrodiesel. Employees do not need special training to use it and no equipment needs to be modified. Unlike petrodiesel, biodiesel will not catch fire or explode. It is not poisonous to humans. It is completely biodegradable materials (capable of being broken down into harmless products). It is environmentally much cleaner than petrodiesel. (more…)
