How does biodiesel effect the environment?

How can biodiesel help the planet?
Biodiesel is replenishable where fossil fuels aren't. Biodiesel is made from biomass such as corn, rapeseed, sugarcane and even algae. The CO2 produced from burning biodiesel is indirectly reabsorbed by the plants that will make the next batch of biodiesel. Fossil fuels just release CO2.
What is the iodine value of biodiesel?
The iodine value of biodiesel gives an indication of the degree of unsaturation in the fatty acid chains present in the biodiesel. It is typically lower for biodiesel derived from saturated fats or oils, and higher for biodiesel derived from unsaturated fats or oils. Knowing the iodine value can help assess the oxidative stability and cold flow properties of biodiesel.
Benefits of biodiesel?
Biodiesel improves public health and the environment, and provides safety benefits. It also reduces greenhouse gas emissions better than gasoline, ethanol, and conventional diesel.
Is biofuel good for the environment?
Generally I would say that it is good for the environment. The biodiesel reduces the emissions of carbon dioxide 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. In fact, there are venture capitalist investing large amount of money on biofuels. Read more, click the link.
What has a higher efficiency biodiesel or ethanol?
Biodiesel
Why is there an increasing demand for biodiesel?
There is an increasing demand for biodiesel due to concerns about climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, as biodiesel is a renewable and cleaner-burning fuel compared to traditional fossil fuels. Additionally, biodiesel can help reduce dependence on imported oil and improve energy security. Governments also provide incentives and mandates to support the use of biodiesel, further driving its demand.
What is the spanish word for biodiesel?
biodiesel = el biodiésel
What is the difference between biofuel and biodiesel?
Biofuel is organic, cheap, good for the environmet, and made from plants grown here in the US. Biodiesel is recycled oil that can be used to run cars and plains but it is not organic and the reproduction is not good for the environment at all and can be a bit more expensive. All in all they both have their advantages and disadvantages.
Which technology would best help the US wean itself from foreign oil?
biodiesel fuel
Can tractors be made to use biodiesel?
Yes, tractors can be modified or designed to use biodiesel as a fuel source. Biodiesel is a renewable alternative to traditional diesel fuel and can help reduce emissions and dependency on fossil fuels. Many modern tractors are already compatible with biodiesel blends.
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.
