The cost difference between biodiesel and conventional diesel can vary based on factors such as feedstock prices, production methods, and government incentives. Generally, biodiesel may be more expensive to produce due to its reliance on agricultural inputs and processing costs. However, fluctuations in fossil fuel prices can narrow the gap, sometimes making biodiesel competitively priced. Ultimately, regional market conditions and policies significantly influence the price comparison.
It would be great if more people used biodiesel in the diesel trucks! However, at least in Michigan, you can not legally sell the biodiesel you make at home and many people do not want to put the time and effort into making it themselves. There are a few negatives to using biodiesel in diesel trucks. First, there is limited availability of biodiesel fuel. Next, the cost is much higher for biodiesel. Also, fuel economy is off by at least 10%. Additionally, biodiesel may be a concern in cold weather and in older vehicles.
Usually it's about the same price as regular diesel, unless you make it yourself, in which case it's about 90 cents a gallon (assuming you can get a few restaurant owners to give you used cooking oil), and you don't consider time and the base cost of the processor.
difference between cost and costing
Do you mean How much does a biodiesel plant cost? and that is $1.57 per gallon
opportunism. Diesel is a by product of petrol and the cost of diesel is in fact lower than petrol> the reason it is higher is that the government allows price fixing to line its own pockets and the oil companies know it has to be paid for business to go on. Diesel should in fact cost less as it did before the oil companies started to "influence" the Government.
whats the difference between cost and list?
There is no difference
what is the difference?
It cost more than regular fuel.
Cost, it's less efficient than ULSD, conversion to biodiesel is expensive, it gels more easily than ULSD does.
