Biodiesel has a relatively low flash point, typically between 100-170°F (38-77°C), which means it can ignite more easily than petroleum diesel. However, its heat-up characteristics can vary depending on the blend and specific formulation. Compared to traditional diesel, biodiesel may require more energy to reach optimal operating temperatures due to its higher viscosity at lower temperatures. Overall, while it can heat up easily, its performance can be influenced by environmental conditions and the specific blend used.

Is it safe to mix diesel and biodiesel?

Yes it is safe to mix petroleum diesel and biodiesel. Blends of biodiesel and petroleum diesel are designated "BX." Where "B" states that the fuel mixture is a biodiesel blend and "X" indicates the percentage of biodiesel in the blend. For example, common blends of biodiesel in North America include B2 (2% biodiesel), B5(5%), B20(20%), and B100(100%). B100 is also know as "neat," or pure, biodiesel.
