"Sloppily made BD can not only ruin an engine but spew much more crap into the air than commercial petrodiesel." - Dana Linscott.
Please explain. Please explain also how the mythical case you've outlined below differs from petrodiesel. Petrodiesel quality is rather variable, and generally poor-quality in the US, which is years behind Europe in improving diesel fuel quality. What's to stop a local petro-diesel supplier adulterating his fuel? Because that's what you're talking about - NOT sloppily made biodiesel but adulterated biodiesel, a different matter. Not splitting hairs, it's a different matter. As with any fuel, the best-made biodiesel in the world can be adulterated at any stage between the producer and the engine. >I have to assume that you mean my statement regarding >the likelihood that "the most sloppily made biodiesel >is better than the best petrodiesel" is not true and You've failed to demonstrate that it's not true. Sloppily made or not, there's no sulphur, minimal PAHs and genotoxins (ie cancer risk), less VOCs, far less PM10s and PM2.5s, less smog-producing potential - less pollution, less health-risk. Also, instead of fairy tales, please provide some real-world examples to support your claims. Where exactly is all this "bad biodiesel" you keep tilting at? What real-world damage has it done? >Please note I did not say well made biodiesel does >either. You've noted this a couple of times. Nobody said you did say that, to the best of my knowledge. Can you point us at it please? If not, best drop it.
