People are consuming fossil fuels at such a rapid rate we will inevitably run out! Now is the time to embrace biodiesel technology that has been around since the late 1800s with Rudolph Diesel's design of the compression ignited engine.

Diesel engines can run on a wide variety of fuels; in fact, vegetable oils were widely used in early applications, but that was before the development of extensive cultivation of oil-bearing plants and the movement of large amounts of vegetable oils in world commerce. Petroleum diesel fuel has been the fuel of choice for such engines for decades because of the low cost of petroleum production and availability until recently. Increasing worldwide concern over dependency upon petroleum imports from unstable regimes also makes agricultural fuel sources increasingly desirable.

Biodiesel (mono alkyl esters) is made from natural, renewable sources and is domestically produced, so it biodiesel fits well under the USA's Energy Policy Act of 1992, which is in place to help ensure national energy security through replacing imported petroleum products. Many US states have adopted companion regulations and policies.

Biodiesel significantly reduces emissions that contribute to global warming, increases engine life with its superior lubricity properties, and is non-toxic. By producing biodiesel locally we can create jobs locally and help our country decrease our dependence on foreign oil while keeping American Dollars in America.

The problem is clear: We need an alternative to fossil fuel, and biodiesel can provide a large part of the solution. Standard Biodiesel can help your business or agency develop and adopt a biodiesel alternative of your own.
