What is biofuel? Biofuel is one of the many new waves of green energy. It’s created through a process called transesterification, which takes waste vegetable oil (WVO) and converts it into a petro-fuel or diesel alternative. Over the past few years, use of this vegetable-based biofuel has only increased, and is actually very valuable, often attracting thieves. The reason for its high value is because it can be used so readily. Biofuel can be used to fuel machines on its own with a special engine, but it can also be used in petro-biofuel mixtures. These mixtures can be used in regular diesel engines, with no adjustments to the engine needed. That makes it not only clean, renewable, energy-efficient, and American-made, but convenient as well. There’s also evidence that it’s even safer than regular fuel! Learn more about the current and future of biodiesel and biofuel. [Read more…]
