We can see the energy crisis taking a toll on our lives and pockets even as this article is being written. Biodesiel works well in diesel engines that are devoid of modifications.
Fuel-grade biodiesel must be produced to strict industry specifications in order to insure proper performance. It is made from sustainable, locally grown crops, reducing the need to buy foreign oil. It reduces air pollution along with the associated health risks to the public as well.
The fuel has similar properties as that of the diesel, making it easy to use. Biodiesel has been proven to perform similarly to diesel. In USA, the IRS has started offering tax incentives to institutions and individuals that produce and use biodiesel.
Biodiesel will gel in very cold temperatures. Environmentalists are concerned that the inadvertent consequence of using biodiesel fuel is unrecoverable damage to the environment.
