Biodiesel has big potentials as alternative fuel such as eolic and sun energy.

A big obstacle for biodiesel is land productivity of actual plantations of vegetable oils.

Palm oil gives the best productivity but it is far too little to cover whole world population needs.

There are researches in algae oil production because algaes has an enormous productivity (per occupation of land) but production costs are far too high.

Yes it is safe to mix petroleum diesel and biodiesel. Blends of biodiesel and petroleum diesel are designated "BX."

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.
