Biodiesel

Biodiesel is a renewable fuel produced from vegetable oil, animal fats, and waste cooking oils.  Feedstocks such as soy, canola, mustard, sunflower, coconut, palm and cottonseed oil as well as beef tallow and fish oils have been used to manufacture biodiesel.

The UK government's renewable transport fuel oligation requires 5% of all their fuel comes from renewable sources by 2010.

Since the presence of contaminants can lead to operational problems, the American Society for Testing and Material (ASTM) and European Standard (EN) have developed standards to which pure biodiesel (B100) can be tested.
