It is pure burning, non-petroleum product created from various diverse renewable natural resources like vegetable oils, corn and animal fats. Biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics.
What the biofuel discussion points to is the urgency for businesses to begin planning for the inevitability of a green energy world in order to protect themselves from rising energy costs and clean energy regulations, policies, and taxes. Something needs to be done and targets have been set, the United States is the only developed country that has not ratified the treaty and yet it is one of the significant greenhouse gas emitters. And bio-diesel fuel can be domestically grown, eliminating our dependence on foreign oil.
Biodiesel is the only alternative fuel to have fully completed the health effects testing requirements of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. Biodiesel use results in a significantly reduced emission of carbon monoxide. The esterified oil can be exploited to energize the unmodified diesel engines.
When you make the biodiesel yourself the average saving is more than fifty percent. Biofuel can be mixed with diesel for those who are reluctant to put their faith in the alternative.
