Is bio diesel really good for the environment?
The biodiesel reduces the emissions of carbon monoxide by over 50 percent, driving down the pollution in the air. That is because the biodiesel emissions are from recycled carbon that was already in the atmosphere. The biodiesel also has a lot less hydrocarbons. With the biodiesel there is a 71 percent decrease in benzopyrenes.It is proven that biodiesel fuel can reduce as much as 20 percent of the direct tailpipe emission. The fuel also makes up between 10 and 25 percent more nitrogen oxide that are the tailpipe emissions than regular petrodiesel. Biodiesel has a higher cetane rating than the regular diesel fuel and the benefit of that would be that the car starts quicker with the biodiesel fuel than the standard.

Can diesel or biodiesel be burned in a kerosene space heater?
ANSWER:Normal diesel fuel should not be burned in a kerosene heater, because there are many more contaminants in it, such as sulfur. A 100% solution of Biodiesel will not work because it requires a much higher initial temperature (300F) to burn cleanly. Blends of these fuels with kerosene can be burned, but there may be problems with the fuel soaking up the wick properly in the case of Biodiesel, which can lead to wick burning and sooting. There may also be problems lighting and burning properly if the blend contains too much of the Biodiesel, as its flash point is higher than kerosene. Diesel/Biodiesel fuel can also be run in many forced air heaters along with kerosene.

Would it harm a diesel engine if you combined regular diesel with bio diesel?
Factory-made biodiesel is sold as "B-such-and-such." The most common is B20. The number is the percentage of biodiesel in the mix--the rest is petroleum diesel. Answer: it works fine, go for it. As long as the bio diesel is clean and doesn't have water in it. it should be fine. Use caution with the home brew, filter it good and don't run more than 20% bio diesel below freezing without tank heaters it gells way too easy. There are several different types of bio diesel, make sure the kind you are going to use will work in in a factory fuel system or if you will need a kit installed on your vehicle to properly burn the fuel. Also, adding on to his answer, the first time you use the biodiesel you might want to change your fuel filter. The biodiesel will clean out your gas tank and may clog up your filter.
