Biodiesel, is made from alcohol esters that are processed from the oils of veggies such as soybeans, mustard seeds and rapeseeds. Biodiesel is bio-degradable, eco-friendly and a non-poisonous fuel.
The conversion to more biofuel is probably inevitable. It benefits domestic economies by reducing the dependence on importing foreign petroleum. In view of the fact that biodiesel does not contain sulphur and aromatics, it burns cleaner leaving very few traces of contaminants.
Only diesel engines that have natural rubber parts instead of synthetic rubber parts cannot use biodiesel, but these engines are not as common as the engines that can use the biodiesel. Biodiesel is also a better solvent than conventional diesel and has been shown to break down residue deposits in fuel lines that have previously been using conventional diesel products. Water can cause pitting in the pistons of diesel engines.
Once you get the hang of it making biodiesel at home is a great way to cut your reliance on the big oil companies for your energy needs. Clearly governments need to further embrace the concept of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
