We are now offering highly-beneficial biodiesel fuel.
We’re shaking things up in the fuel world by providing innovative, highly-beneficial solutions to serve our customers better. We are now offering a cleaner, more sustainable fuel option to lower emissions – biodiesel fuel (in both winter and summer blends).
It’s non-toxic, biodegradable, and is safer for the planet and its inhabitants when spilled. It also has a higher flash point than petroleum diesel, meaning it requires a higher temperature to combust, so it is safer to handle and store. It can also help your business meet its carbon reduction goals.
- B2, B5, B10, B20 blends are available
- On-road, off-road, marine blends are also available as bio blends
What is it?
Biodiesel fuel is made from vegetable oils like soybean and palm, as well as waste vegetable oils, animal oils, or fats (also known as biomass) using a process called transesterification. Used vegetable oil is readily available from restaurants and the commercial food industry, making this source for biodiesel a renewable energy option. It is designed to be used directly in diesel engines without any special investments or upgrades.
Biodiesel acts as a solvent and does gel faster in cold weather, so it is often blended with petroleum diesel. This allows users to find a happy medium of cost, performance, cold weather response, and emission reductions without depending solely on fossil fuels. The most common blend is B20 (20% bio, 80% petroleum). This blend is ideal for a number of climates and industries due to its stability in colder climates.
