Without a shadow of a doubt, the world is currently facing one of its greatest crises, which if not urgently and expertly dealt with, can bring the global economy to a complete halt. Biodiesel is the name of a clean burning alternative fuel, produced from domestic, renewable resources.
Several companies and private undertakers have launched investigations to find fuel alternatives to petroleum products. All this oil, fat, and grease will need to be processed in a specialized processor which removes any contaminates before it refines the oil into biodiesel fuel. It is less toxic than table salt and biodegrades as fast as sugar.
Another downside could be of more practical concern to the bio-diesel car owner in colder areas. Biodiesel is the only alternative fuel to have fully completed the health effects testing requirements of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. So far, biodiesel is the only alternative fuel that can be used in engines without the need for any modification.
Developing a dependence on traditional first generation biocrops may result in food competing with fuel over the use of land. There are subsequent environmental benefits when choosing to use biodiesel over conventional petroleum based diesel.
