MYTH: Biodiesel cannot
be used in sub-freezing
temperatures.
Diesel fuel “gelling” in cold climates is a common
phenomenon and diesel fuel suppliers, as well as
users and diesel engine designers, have learned
over time to manage cold flow problems associated
with Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel #2 in the winter time.
• B5 Biodiesel adopts same properties as
conventional diesel.
• B20 Blending with Kerosene
• Utilization of additives to enhance cold
flow properties
• Utilization of fuel tank, fuel filter or fuel
line heaters
• Utilization of new bio-friendly filters

MYTH: Biodiesel requires more energy to
produce than it yields.
Biodiesel actually represents the highest “energy balance” of any
transportation fuel. The DOE/USDA lifecycle analysis shows for every
unit of fossil energy required to produce biodiesel, 3.2 units of energy are
gained. This figure does consider the cultivation, harvest, raw material
processing and fuel used to transport the B100 to its distribution points.
