Biodiesel: The Renewable Energy Resource with a Potential for Replacing Petroleum

Biodiesel has gained widespread traction recently due to its numerous benefits over petroleum, which could help with the growing environmental concerns. It is a renewable resource that can be produced from used cooking oil, vegetable oils, animal fats, and restaurant grease. More specifically, it is produced by altering the properties of such materials to make it perform like petrol or diesel fuel. Large as well as small-scale manufacturers are involved in its production, as there are numerous advantages of biodiesel in everyday life.

Environmental Benefits of Biodiesel

Biodiesel is good for the economy, being one of the top renewable fuels and an alternative for petrol and diesel. It has lower carbon dioxide emissions as compared to other fuels; hence, it reduces the global warming impact and improves human and animal health. Moreover, it is less toxic and safe for handling due to a higher flash point. Biodiesel also contributes to the recycling of waste products, as it is produced from used oils and fats.

Moreover, it is the only alternative fuel successfully evaluated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under its Clean Air Act. According to an EPA study, biodiesel has 47% lesser particulate matter, 48% lesser carbon monoxide, 67% lesser unburned hydrocarbons, 80% lesser PAH, 90% lesser nPAH, and 50% lower speciated hydrocarbons ozone-forming potential as compared to petroleum diesel fuel. Moreover, the complete absence of sulfur in this fuel results in reduced pollution.

Biodiesel Transforming Automotive Industry

Added Benefits over Petroleum: Apart from being a low polluter, biodiesel is more lubricative than conventional diesel, therefore can reduce engine wear. This would ultimately improve the vehicle mileage and reduce emissions even further, while also reducing the requirement for regular engine repairs.

Biodiesel Fuel Blends: There are various blends depending on the ratio of biodiesel to petroleum fuel. For instance, the B20 blend has 80% petroleum diesel and 20% biodiesel. With the introduction of ultra-low and low-sulfur diesel, many products that were used to enhance the lubricity of the fuel have been discontinued. So, by adding merely 5% biodiesel to low- and ultra-low-sulfur diesel, it can become more lubricative. Further, to enhance the cold-operating capacity of petroleum in winters, a blend with 70% biodiesel and 30% petroleum diesel is used.

Biodiesel in Automobiles: Biodiesels and their blends can be used in all diesel engines. The diesel models of Mercedes (2007 or beyond), BMW, and Volkswagen have an integrated fuel system that uses a diesel particulate filter, which can produce fuel or oil dilution in the diesel engine, which can use biodiesel or diesel fuel. In vehicles, biodiesel can be utilized in its pure form (B100) or blended with petroleum diesel. After a few first uses of biodiesel with regular tune-ups, vehicle users can switch anytime between it and petroleum without any modification.

Thus, biodiesel beats all alternative fuels with its lower pollution emissions, which has been speeding up its consumption in automobiles.
