From cleaner air to a cleaner world, biodiesel provides
numerous advantages over petroleum fuels. Among the benefits:
|
|
| |
- Renewable Fuel Source. Unlike fossil fuels,
biodiesel is made from vegetable oilseed crops grown in America,
which replenishes the market annually with renewable feedstock.
- Well-established distribution infrastructure.
Biodiesel is compatible with the existing petroleum diesel
infrastructure. In fact, biodiesel can also be blended with any
percentage of diesel fuel.
- No new vehicles or engine modifications.
Biodiesel works in todayıs engines. No special vehicles or
engine modifications are needed to comply with the Energy Policy
Act of 1992 (EPAct) using biodiesel.
- Performance. Recent studies show that
biodiesel actually increases engine efficiency through a higher
cetane rating and extends engine life through added lubricity.
- Biodegradable and less toxic than table salt.
Biodiesel is far less damaging to the environment than petroleum
diesel, particularly in environmentally sensitive areas or in
the event of a spill or leak.
- Dramatically reduces emissions. Biodiesel
reduces lifecycle CO2 emissions by over 78% compared to
petroleum diesel. In fact, even blended with petroleum diesel,
biodiesel significantly reduces emissions.
- Made in the USA. Biodiesel benefits American
farmers, businesses and the national economy. Job creation, new
markets for domestic agricultural products and keeping our
energy dollars domestic are just a few of the many economic
benefits gained by using biodiesel instead of petroleum diesel.
- Energy Balance. According to a report by the
U.S. Department of Energy and the Department of Agriculture, the
"energy yield of biodiesel is (3.2/0.83) 280 percent greater
than petroleum diesel fuel. Biodiesel yields 3.2 units of fuel
product energy for every unit of fossil energy consumed in its
life cycle...By contrast, petroleum diesel's life cycle yields
only 0.83 units of fuel energy per unit of fossil energy
consumed."
