Product Description
Newly revised and expanded with updated material for 2008, our unique electronic book on two CD-ROMs has an amazing collection of the finest federal documents and resources on biodiesel fuels, production, and usage. There is comprehensive coverage of every aspect of biodiesel technology: fundamental information, production, performance, usage, blends, specifications, safety, pollution, storage, standards, SVO vegetable oil, feedstocks (such as oils, fats, canola, soy, tallow, and restaurant grease), commercial item description, chemical and physical characteristics, history, and much more. There is extensive material from the Energy Department and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The depth and breadth of the coverage of federal grants and small business programs is truly awesome. This incredible CD-ROM is packed with over 56,000 pages reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows and Macintosh systems. Contents of this collection include: BIODIESEL PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY - Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engines that is gaining attention in the United States after reaching a considerable level of success in Europe. Its primary advantages are that it is one of the most renewable fuels currently available and it is also non-toxic and biodegradable. Contents include: basics of production, basic organic chemistry, specifications, properties, plant, equipment, chemical plant controls, pretreatment of feedstocks, patents, post-reaction processing, treatment and recovery of side streams, logistics, feedstock preparation and quality, plant safety, transportation and storage, product quality, and an evaluation of biodiesel fuel bio-deterioration susceptibility to microorganisms. BIODIESEL HANDLING AND USE guidelines for those who blend, distribute, and use biodiesel and biodiesel blends - fleets and individual users, blenders, distributors. Biodiesel is a renewable fuel manufactured from vegetable oils, animal fats, and recycled cooking oils. Biodiesel is renewable, energy efficient, displaces petroleum derived diesel fuel, can be used in most diesel equipment with no or only minor modifications, can reduce global warming gas emissions, can reduce tailpipe emissions, including air toxics, is nontoxic, biodegradable, and suitable for sensitive environments, and is made in the United States from either agricultural or recycled resources.Biodiesel can be used in several different ways. You can use 1% to 2% biodiesel as a lubricity additive, which could be especially important for ultra low sulfur diesel fuels (ULSD, less than 15 ppm sulfur), which may have poor lubricating properties. You can blend 20% biodiesel with 80% diesel fuel (B20) for use in most applications that use diesel fuel. You can even use it in its pure form (B100) if you take proper precautions. Biodiesel refers to the pure fuel B100 that meets the specific biodiesel definition and standards approved by ASTM International. A number following the B indicates the percentage of biodiesel in a gallon of fuel, where the remainder of the gallon can be No. 1 or No. 2 diesel, kerosene, jet A, JP8, heating oil, or any other distillate fuel.1 Today, B20 is the most common biodiesel blend in the United States because it balances property differences with conventional diesel, performance, emission benefits, and costs. B20 is also the minimum blend level allowed for Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPAct) compliance. B20 can be used in equipment designed to use diesel fuel. Equipment that can use B20 includes compression-ignition (CI) engines, fuel oil and heating oil boilers, and turbines.
