Biodiesel is the first and only alternative fuel to complete the health effects testing requirements of the U.S. Clean Air Act, including conclusive proof that it will significantly reduce all regulated emissions and that it does not pose a threat to human health. The use of B100 over petroleum diesel:
- Decreases hydrocarbon emissions, a major component in smog, by 50%¹
- Eliminates sulfur emissions, a major component of acid rain¹
- Reduces global warming by producing 75% less CO² emissions²
Biodiesel won’t harm marine life or sensitive waterways. Biodiesel degrades about four times faster than petroleum diesel and blended biodiesel degrades about three times faster.³
Biodiesel production volumes in the U.S. have tripled every year for the last three years and will increase. Innovation Fuels companies have been producing biodiesel for more than 3 years.
