BIODIESEL

Biodiesel is a renewable and biodegradable fuel derived from natural sources such as vegetable oils, animal fats, and algae. It is produced through the process of transesterification, where oils or fats react with alcohol to create biodiesel and glycerin. Used as an alternative to petroleum-based diesel, biodiesel is known for its cleaner emissions, reducing carbon monoxide, sulfur oxides, and particulate matter compared to conventional diesel. It is commonly blended with petroleum diesel, with popular blends like B20 (20% biodiesel) and B100 (100% biodiesel). Biodiesel is a more sustainable fuel option that helps reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and its production supports agricultural industries.
