Biodiesel
  • There are so many different grades of biodiesel
    that people will be confused as to what to use

    and Nancy Ta

Grades of Diesel

Blends of Biodiesel
  • ASTM (American Society of Testing Materials)
    define regulations for all fuels in the US,
    including biodiesel blends
  • B100100 Biodiesel
  • B2020 biodiesel and 80 petrol-diesel fuel.
  • B55 biodiesel 95 petrol-diesel
  • B22 biodiesel 98 petrol-diesel

Conclusion
  • There are two types of grades Grade 1 and Grade
    2. Both have low sulfur content.
  • There are three common ASTM approved blends of
    Biodiesel
  • B20, B5 and B2.
  • B20 is the most commonly used.
  • Confusion lies in switching between biodiesel and
    diesel and biodiesel use verses biodiesel grades.
