Default Most People Will Never Know About Biodiesel


So, if "burning biodiesel fuels actually gives back more energy to the
environment that it takes", it contributes to global warming much more
than fossil fuel does? It should be outlawed then!

I wonder who comes up with this dumb stuff. They could at least try to
get the terminology right. When was the last time you were hit in the
eye by an nitrous oxide particle? Those are bad!

Duh.

What kind of difference can the use biodiesel make when it comes to
changing the world for the better? Perhaps the biggest impact of the
use of biodiesel fuel instead of just plain diesel is on the human
health and the environment.
One of the biggest differences that biodiesel make is with regards to
smog. Using biodiesel actually reduces smog. Both unburned
hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides in diesel fuel account for most of
the particulates in air pollution. When you use biodiesel product or
homemade biodiesel there is a substantial reduction of unburned
hydrocarbons and if you are using a blend that is right for your
machine. Tests that have been conducted according to EPA regulations
have shown that the hydrocarbon exhaust emissions that biodiesel are
half that of that measured for diesel fuel.
Can biodiesel make more energy? Unlike the burning of fossil fuels,
the burning biodiesel fuels actually gives back more energy to the
environment that it takes. Lifecycle studies of biodiesel production
show that for every unit of fossil energy it takes to manufacture ...http://biodiesemde.blogspot.com/#
