Canola, (Canadian Oil), is made from rapeseed and is very common in the US.
Most, if not all, of the resturants I get my waste oil from use Canola.
They (Canola) have a good website  http://www.canola-council.org/

Subject: [biofuel] VW guarantees for biodiesel in the US


 From a letter from the US:

>I'm in the midst of acquiring
>a VW Beetle turbodiesel, but was disappointed to learn that VW won't honor
>the warranty if biodiesel is used, altho' Germany does. The issue is that
>Germany uses rapeseed-based fuel, and most of the supplied biodiesel here
is
>made with soybean oil.

Clash of standards - the issue wouldn't be, would it, that Europe's 
biodiesel standards have some specs that include rapeseed oil but 
exclude soybean oil, for no apparent reason, other than that perhaps 
Europe has a huge surplus of rapeseed oil, just as the US has a huge 
surplus of soybean oil?

Surely the only valid issue is to promote maximum use of renewable, 
carbon-neutral biofuels. Or am I being naive?
