The gasoline prices have increased by several notches in the United States in the last couple of years. Rising prices of energy fuels have prompted companies and individuals to search for low-cost sources of fuels for their machines and automobiles.
Biodiesel also provides considerably fewer combustion emissions when compared to petroleum-based diesel fuel. The main problem with bio-fuels today is the source of the raw materials. Even if there is an oil spill, the amount of harm will be negligible as compared to an oil spill from a normal source.
Biofuel is defined as liquid or gas transportation fuel derived from biomass. It is relatively easy to produce in small or large volumes. The regular diesel has components such as sulfur and aromatics.
One thing is for sure, first generation biofuels once thought to be the alternative fuel source of the future, have come under increased scrutiny recently. When you make the biodiesel yourself the average saving is more than fifty percent.
