Mixing of Biodiesel
Renewable diesel refers to biofuel produced from vegetable oils or animal fats; while biodiesel is derived from plant sources such as soybeans, rapeseed, palm oil, or jatropha. There are three main types of biodiesel blends: B0 (no biodiesel), B5 (up to five percent biodiesel), and B20 (six to twenty percent biodiesel).
