What's Biodiesel?

Biodiesel is a renewable, clean-burning diesel replacement that is reducing our dependence on foreign petroleum, creating jobs and improving the environment. Made from a diverse mix of feedstocks including recycled cooking oil, soybean oil, and animal fats, it is the first and only EPA-designated Advanced Biofuel in commercial-scale production across the USA and the first to reach 1 billion gallons of annual production. Meeting strict technical fuel quality and engine performance specifications, it can be used in existing diesel engines without modification and is covered by all major engine manufacturers’ warranties, most often in blends of up to 5 percent or 20 percent biodiesel. It is produced at plants in nearly every state in the country in USA.

With less than a decade of commercial-scale production, the industry is proud of its careful approach to growth and strong focus on sustainability. Constantly increased  biodiesel production would significantly lessen our dependence on imported oil, bolstering national security and reducing our trade deficit. At the same time, biodiesel’s growth would boost the economy, not just by creating jobs but also by reducing our dependence on global oil markets and vulnerability to price spikes. E.g., the industry in USA is supporting more than 62,000 jobs, generating billions of dollars in GDP, household income and tax revenues. The industry’s economic impact is poised to grow significantly with continued production increases. The industry supports jobs in a variety of sectors, from manufacturing to transportation, agriculture and service.

The EPA has recognized biodiesel’s environmental benefits by classifying it as an Advanced Biofuel, making biodiesel the only commercial-scale fuel produced nationwide to meet the agency’s advanced criteria. According to the EPA, biodiesel reduces greenhouse gas emissions by at least 57 percent and up to 86 percent when compared to petroleum diesel – making it one of the most practical and cost-effective ways to immediately address climate change. In addition, biodiesel sharply reduces major tailpipe pollutants from petroleum diesel, particularly from older diesel vehicles. This is important because the EPA has consistently cited diesel exhaust – primarily from older trucks, buses and other vehicles – as one of the nation's most dangerous pollutants.

Biodiesel is produced using a broad variety of resources. This diversity has grown significantly in recent years, helping shape a nimble industry that is constantly searching for new technologies and feedstocks. In fact, industry demand for less expensive, reliable sources of fats and oils is stimulating promising research on next-generation feedstocks such as algae and camelina.

Biodiesel can be used in pure form (B100) or may be blended with petroleum diesel at any concentration in most injection pump diesel engines.

1. Distribution

Since the passage of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, biodiesel use has been increasing in the United States. In the UK, theRenewable Transport Fuel Obligation obliges suppliers to include 5% renewable fuel in all transport fuel sold in the UK by 2010. For road diesel, this effectively means 5% biodiesel (B5).

2. Vehicular use and manufacturer acceptance

In 2005, Chrysler (then part of DaimlerChrysler) released the Jeep Liberty CRD diesels from the factory into the American market with 5% biodiesel blends, indicating at least partial acceptance of biodiesel as an acceptable diesel fuel additive. In 2007, DaimlerChrysler indicated its intention to increase warranty coverage to 20% biodiesel blends if biofuel quality in the United States can be standardized.

The Volkswagen Group has released a statement indicating that several of its vehicles are compatible with B5 and B100 made from rape seed oil and compatible with the EN 14214 standard. The use of the specified biodiesel type in its cars will not void any warranty.

In 2007, McDonalds of UK announced it would start producing biodiesel from the waste oil byproduct of its restaurants. This fuel would be used to run its fleet.

The 2014 Chevy Cruze Clean Turbo Diesel, direct from the factory, will be rated for up to B20 (blend of 20% biodiesel / 80% regular diesel) biodiesel compatibility

3. Railway usage

British train operating company Virgin Trains claimed to have run the UK's first "biodiesel train", which was converted to run on 80% petrodiesel and 20% biodiesel.

4. Aircraft use

A test flight has been performed by a Czech jet aircraft completely powered on biodiesel.

5. Cleaning oil spills

With 80-90% of oil spill costs invested in shoreline cleanup, there is a search for more efficient and cost-effective methods to extract oil spills from the shorelines. Biodiesel has displayed its capacity to significantly dissolve crude oil, depending on the source of the fatty acids.

6. Biodiesel in generators

In 2001, UC Riverside installed a 6-megawatt backup power system that is entirely fueled by biodiesel. Backup diesel-fueled generators allow companies to avoid damaging blackouts of critical operations at the expense of high pollution and emission rates. By using B100, these generators were able to essentially eliminate the byproducts that result in smog, ozone, and sulfur emissions. The use of these generators in residential areas around schools, hospitals, and the general public result in substantial reductions in poisonous carbon monoxide and particulate matter.

7. As a heating oil

Biodiesel can also be used as a heating fuel in domestic and commercial boilers, a mix of heating oil and biofuel which is standardized and taxed slightly differently from diesel fuel used for transportation. It is sometimes known as "bioheat" (which is a registered trademark of the National Biodiesel Board [NBB] and the National Oilheat Research Alliance [NORA] in the U.S., and Columbia Fuels in Canada). Heating biodiesel is available in various blends. ASTM 396 recognizes blends of up to 5 percent biodiesel as equivalent to pure petroleum heating oil. Blends of higher levels of up to 20% biofuel are used by many consumers

Raw material for biodiesel 

1. Vegetable oils

• Castor oil, lower cost than many candidates. Kinematic viscosity may be an issue.
• Coconut oil (copra oil), promising for local use in places that produce coconuts.
• Colza oil, from Brassica rapa, var. oleifera (turnip) is closely related to rapeseed (or canola) oil. It is a major source of biodiesel in Germany.
• Corn oil, appealing because of the abundance of maize as a crop.
• Cottonseed oil, the subject of study for cost-effectiveness as a biodiesel feedstock.
• False flax oil, from Camelina sativa, used in Europe in oil lamps until the 18th century.
• Hemp oil, relatively low in emissions. Production is problematic in some countries because of its association withmarijuana.
• Mustard oil, shown to be comparable to Canola oil as a biofuel.
• Palm oil, very popular for biofuel, but the environmental impact from growing large quantities of oil palms has recently called the use of palm oil into question.
• Peanut oil, used in one of the first demonstrations of the Diesel engine in 1900.
• Radish oil. Wild radish contains up to 48% oil, making it appealing as a fuel.
• Rapeseed oil, the most common base oil used in Europe in biodiesel production.
• Ramtil oil, used for lighting in India.
• Rice bran oil, appealing because of lower cost than many other vegetable oils. Widely grown in Asia.
• Safflower oil, explored recently as a biofuel in Montana.
• Salicornia oil, from the seeds of Salicornia bigelovii, a halophyte (salt-loving plant) native to Mexico.
• Soybean oil, not economical as a fuel crop, but appealing as a byproduct of soybean crops for other uses.
• Sunflower oil, suitable as a fuel, but not necessarily cost effective.
• Tigernut oil has been described by researchers in China as having "great potential as a biodiesel fuel."
• Tung oil, referenced in several lists of vegetable oils that are suitable for biodiesel. Several factors in China produce biodiesel from tung oil.

2. Animal fats

Animal fats including tallow, lard, yellow grease, chicken fat, and the by-products of the production of Omega-3 fatty acidsfrom fish oil.

3. Animal and vegetable oil mixture

4. Waste oil

Waste cooking oil, illegal cooking oil, hogwash oil and so on.
